No more Pet Meds needed! We are the competively priced with pet meds often at a lower cost, and we have a direct relationship with the drug companies so we are able to offer a guarantee that pet meds cannot. Online pharmacies that offer pet medications cannot buy the medications directly from the drug companies they have to get it from overstock. Overstock medications may have not been stored properly and therefore the product may be ineffective. Also beware of drug counterfeiting. We have had several occasions of drugs appearing to be the same but the actual ingredients vary up to 25%.... for example... Heartworm medication being only 75% of the drug... there is a 25% chance that the medication could not work and your dog would get heartworms. That is not a risk we want to take! Support your local business and buy local!
