Online Pet Pharmacies

If your Cavalier is on long-term medication, perhaps you've considered buying your medications online. Purchasing online can be a bit risky. You may be particularly hesitant when dealing with your pets health. The savings, however, can be great.

The FDA recommends that you find an online pharmacy that is accredited by the National Association of Pharmacies. This is a voluntary program and the applicants must meet certain criteria. Only a few businesses have gone through the process. The list is slim, but they are companies you can feel comfortable trusting.

Please reference the links below for the FDA article on pet pharamacies, followed by the (short) list of NABP accredited pet pharmacies.

Check out this little love. Little Chloe is a small black Cavalier mix recently rescued from a SC shelter. Chloe was high heartworm positive and is being treated through a program called the Heartworm Project. She was set to be euthanized if an adoption was not found, so a loving soul rescued her and is currently fostering her through her treatment and her spay. All of these should be complete in December.

Chloe is a little skiddish, but friendly and gets along well with other dogs. She will be a wonderful pet for the right home.

Here's a video and photos of this precious little girl. You can read her whole story and how to go about adopting her at http://www.cavaliercorner.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=793&sid=4597fefb92c64d61336efef58987d540

They really don't come much cuter than this.
