Found a cool way to get Heartworm medicine ALOT cheaper!

Umm... do you know how they store their meds and what methouds they use to ship? Many places like these store the meds in werhouses where there is no temperature control. Also the shipping may take much longer then the overnight shipping methouds used by vets, this may mean your meds sit in a truck in 100 degree temps getting distroyed. Many meds including heartguad must be keepted below certain temp or they loos how affective they are. Sorry I'm shure they have great prices but i just don't trust thoes kinda of places and feel safer paying more to get that stuff from my vet and know it comes straight from the company that makes it.

I'm not sure about that, but I'll ask around the TT fourms and find out!

Ok, here's what I found on the website,

What about how the meds are stored in their factory, does it say anywhere in their site about that? I would assume most people who order from there would go with the free shipping and their meds arrive defective but they have no clue. I know around here the tepms outsied are well over 100 in the summer, I can't imagin how hot it would get in the delervery trucks, even if it's overnight. Vets use an overnight service also however, most packages are delevered in air conditioned vans that delver medical supplies, I trust that over anything else. Just my thoughts on that but if you feel confortable ordering from them then thats up to you.

Also I like to support my local vet over some big busness somewhere unknow to me. I have a good relationsiph with my vet and I'de rather see the money go to her, who I know personlay, then some stranger.
