The Ultimate Dog Expense Tracker
Your vet might be overcharging you...
Our Toolbox π§°
I used to purchase medication from my vet until I realized they were overcharging me 50%.
After doing the math, that's almost $1,000 a year on Aki's medication alone.
So I built an expense tracker to stay on top of it and created a template for you. π

You might remember my mini-series on π How To Diagnose & Treat Allergies.
After going through that entire process with Aki, I learned he has environmental allergies and will need Apoquel for life.
At almost $5 a day, it adds up fast.
To make it even worse, I found out my vet was charging a 50% markup, which would've cost me almost an extra $1,000 a year.
So naturally, I started tracking every purchase.
What started as a spreadsheet for Aki's medication turned into a full expense tracker for everything.

TL;DR: Vets can mark up medication by almost 50%. After discovering I was on track to overpaying $1,000/year on Aki's medication, I built a Dog Expense Tracker to stay on top of it.
