We strive to always offer the best pricing possible, with direct relationships with major drug manufacturers and veterinary wholesalers.

Pet prescription products are just like your own, we must have a valid prescription written by the veterinarian who sees them. This does not mean you have to have a written prescription in hand, however. If you have seen your vet, and they prescribed medication for your pet that you have not purchased yet, our pharmacy will contact them for authorization before we ship the product to you.

If you do not have a written prescription, simply select “Contact my vet” at checkout and our pharmacy will reach out for authorization before shipping.  

 

If you have a written prescription, it can be mailed to: 

 

Pets Choice Pharmacy Order #

Only send original, written prescriptions. No photocopies will be accepted.  

By law, to process your prescription order, we need to have your pets information to verify your prescription request with your veterinarian. The required fields are essential for us to track down this verification, and the additional information is to help ensure the safety of your pet when dispensing medications. 

Following the regulations set forth by every states Board of Pharmacy regarding how we can accept prescriptions, the first method of contact is by automated fax. If your veterinarian does not respond via fax, we will call them for a verbal verification. 

Donations are paid to earning organizations on a quarterly basis.

No the discount is only being made available to shelter staff and volunteers. Shelters United Pharmacy will go through a reconciliation process as the donations are getting ready to be made to ensure that this guideline is followed.
