As more dogs joined our pack, the cost of their flea, tick, and heart worm preventative increased. These pups definitely need to be protected, but the prices at veterinarian offices have skyrocketed. A six month supply of Advantage Multi costs almost $100...per pack!
Our 15 year old Chihuahua developed anxiety last October after suddenly going blind due to glaucoma and now has to take anti-anxiety pills every day. He also takes medication for arthritis in his back. Hope, our blind and deaf double dapple Dachshund, has an extreme grass allergy that keeps her scratching all night if not medicated. She also needs to take a low dose of Melatonin to help regulate her sleep cycle since she can't see or hear.
The cost of the medications and preventatives is staggering. I quickly took to the Internet to find a more cost effective solution. My search brought me to the Pet Rescue Rx website. I love the variety of products that they offer. From vitamins and supplements to syringes and first aid kits, they truly are a one stop shop.
What I like even more than their inventory is their dedication to animal shelters and rescue groups across the country. All of the profits from each product purchase go directly to the shelter/rescue of the customer's choosing. I was thrilled to see Stray Rescue St. Louis among the options listed.
Founder Glenn Buckley, DVM, knows the needs of the animals that are in his care on a daily basis. Yet, he hasn't forgotten the shelter animals that have touched his life on his journey to become a veterinarian. Buckley is always reminded of the constant demand that shelters and rescue groups have for food, toys, medical supplies, etc.
Seeking to take the burden of continuous fundraising away from dedicated shelter staff and volunteers, he created Pet Rescue Rx. Buckley remains true to his motto of "a pets before profits pharmacy." He receives no compensation from the site. To date, the pharmacy has donated over $100,000 to 500 plus shelters and rescues.
I have personally used this pharmacy for over five years. I love their prices and the ability to give back to a local rescue (especially one that I also volunteer for). My orders always arrive in a timely manner and I never have to worry about my pets not being protected due to product cost.
The ordering process is seamless. Simply create an account and then add each of your pets. Provide the name of your veterinarian and then select your product. When you head to the checkout, you will be prompted to select which animal shelter/rescue group you would like your product purchase funds to be allotted to. Now, sit back and enjoy the feeling of knowing that you've just helped animals in need while taking care of your own.
As a pet parent to five rescue dogs and three cats, I highly recommend this online pharmacy. Their compassion and dedication to helping animals is truly amazing.

Thank you for sharing. I will definitely check this. I recently got a dog from a pet adoption shelter. This kind of commitment is what people should give on their pets. Having a pet may sound simple but not quite. You always have to be there when they need you, specially at their senior days, give them all the love they need and deserve.
