I’m going to need your dog’s signature on that…

Ddi you know that you can have your pet’s prescriptions filled at your local pharmacy?

I discovered this a few months ago, when Bella was in need of some drugs but I couldn’t get to the vet before they closed. They called in a prescription to a nearby grocery store. I went to pick it up and shared a laugh with the pharmacist regarding what box to check on the acknowledgement screen, which requires you to identify your relationship to the patient. Among the options – child, relative, and other. (Dog was not an option.) The pharmacist told me that lots of people pick up pet prescriptions there and suggested I check child. Obviously, the pharmacist working that day was cool.

However, not all journeys to pick up canine prescriptions go smoothly. I’m going to need your dog’s signature on that…
