We respect the right of our clients to get their pet’s medication from the pharmacy of their choice.  Unfortunately, due to the high number of requests by online pharmacies that are inappropriate, inaccurate and consume a significant amount of staffs’ time, we can no longer honor these requests.

We offer the following options to ensure your pet’s medications are received “safely” and at your “convenience”

  • If you would like to continue using an outside online pharmacy, we will provide a prescription that will be available for you to pick up at the clinic or we can mail the prescription directly to you. This service will be provided to our clients free of charge. You will then be able to send this prescription to the pharmacy of your choice.

(Please Note: Some pharmacies may not accept emailed prescriptions, thus requiring you to mail the original)

**So that we may verify weight and correct dosing, please allow up to 72 hours (about 3 days) for this to be completed**

Pet Palliative Care

The Whole Pet definition of palliative care: A specialized form of medical management focused on preserving an animal’s quality of life for as long as reasonably attainable. This is not a cessation of medical care, but a shift in treatment goals to alleviate suffering for animals and their families.
In an effort to ensure proper medical care, Whole Pet Veterinary Center requires certain principles of care be strictly followed for palliative care patients. These principles are designed to prevent suffering and increase client/caregiver communication throughout the end-of-life experience. Some animal patients will require more end-of-life/palliative care than others. This will be determined by your pet’s condition, caregiver needs, and expected prognosis. Education regarding your pet’s condition will be provided at the time of palliative care consultations.
