Changed my lab puppies life. He was once destructive and unmanageable. Training along side this drug have turned him into a completely different pup.

Fluoxetine
Same product I have been getting from the vet for the past few years. Cheaper and saves me from driving to and from the vet office for refills multiple times per year.
Fluoxetine for Anxiety Bichon
I cannot say enough about Chewy! Have ordered, dog food, treats, and toys for years! Just discovered, they also carry my Pup's anxiety meds (with a script). Vet price, 90 day supply $67.00...Chewy 90 day supply....08. per pill! Exact same pill also. Love, love Chewy !
expensive and confusing
I don't know that the issues I have are due to Chewy or Fluoxetine or the fact that it's a controlled substance with too much rigamarole to acquire it. My extremely sweet dog randomly lashes out at our other pets, so she has a prescription for Fluoxetine. But I can only purchase a week's worth at a time, and then I'm told I need a new prescription to order more. But that means I need another vet appointment, which is impossible to get and costs $80 when I do. Then I have to mail the prescription to Chewy. So basically, I can pay about $155 for less than 2 weeks of the medicine, then wait 2 months for another vet appointment and do it again. I give up.
Works wonders!
Our precious rescue dog Tucker appeared to have come from a dog fighting situation. The scars on his body indicated this was the case. He was not and is not a fighting dog, he was probably used as a submissive. Tucker is a huge mix of Yellow Lab and Great Pyrenees and possibly some Bully mix, but he is the biggest baby and gets frightened by loud noises (even those on TV). He was so stressed out and anxious when we first got him. He was chewing up everything, very jumpy, constantly paced, was even eating the WALLS!! Our vet recommended Fluoxetine to help calm him. It took a few weeks, but the meds WORKED!! He is now a VERY HAPPY, calm and relaxed pup, who enjoys life with our family and he’s an absolute pleasure to be around. We couldn’t be happier and Tucker is too!!
Eases anxiety
This Rx is not excessive so does not "drug up" your pet.
Very good service
All I had to do was place my order and my vet information. The order and shipping itself is speedy but sometimes your vet might delay a bit with medication so be sure to get prescription refills well before you need it. Way cheaper than any vet I've been to. I realized how much they were price gouging when I saw how much fluoxetine was wholesale so I found chewy. Very affordable.
Easy to use service
Prescription order approved easily by providing veterinarian contact information. The medication came quickly and was cheaper than with previous company.
