To take advantage of VetCentric’s special prescription discount plan, GDB graduates simply need to register online at guidedogs.com, print the custom form and bring it to their local veterinary clinic.

“We’ve streamlined the process for both the veterinary clinic and the dog owners,” said Joe Gatto, Senior Director of Business Development at VetCentric. “We’re incredibly excited and proud to work with Guide Dogs for the Blind. The work they do has had such an incredible impact on so many lives,” added Gatto.
