- 2nd day orders can only be shipped Monday-Wednesday. Orders taken after 1:00pm CST on Wednesday will be shipped on the following Monday.

Orders outside the contiguous 48 US States
International orders and all orders from Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico will incur additional shipping charges. If you would like a shipping quote, please email your location (along with a postal code) and the items you wish to purchase to CustomerService@pet-source.com . You will receive a quote within the next business day. Orders are typically delivered in approximately 7-10 days, but can be delayed by Customs. Because of this, we are unable to guarantee the efficacy of vaccines and they are shipped at the customer's risk. International orders can incur additional charges such as duties, VAT fees, etc. that are not included in your shipping charges. We have no control over these charges and therefore cannot assess the fees prior to shipping. Any and all additional fees that may be assessed for your package will be your responsibility. While there is no obvious reason Customs will hold your order, please be advised we will be held harmless should your package be refused and undeliverable for any reason. No refunds will be issued on orders that were undeliverable due to the restrictions of your country. Responsibility for import rules and regulations for your country and any import permits or certificates are your responsibility.
