In order for us to be able supply these we employ Animal Medicine Advisors (SQP’s) in our store to safely dispense the correct product for your animal. To become an SQP our team members have attended a course and sat the relevant exams to gain the SQP qualification and then to uphold it they gain CPD (Continued Professional Development) points on an ongoing basis.

To purchase online please add the required restricted veterinary products to your basket, you will then be re-directed to fill in a short questionnaire based on your pets. Our SQP’s will then receive this form and check that details and product/s chosen are right for your animal before they are dispensed or contact you should we need to ask a few more questions.

Please be aware it is a legal requirement that we receive this information regarding your animals to ensure the correct strength of licensed product has been ordered. As SQP’s we cannot supply a restricted veterinary medicine that is outside the weight, age and species requirements of the product you intend to purchase and orders that do not meet these criteria will be cancelled and refunded.
