Today’s guest was Dr. Glenn Buckley, D.V.M., CEO and founder of Pet Rescue Rx. Dr. Buckley attended veterinary school at Louisiana State University School of Medicine. As a practicing veterinarian, he worked as an emergency vet in South Florida. After closing that practice and returning to his hometown of Akron, New York (not too far from Buffalo), he and his brother Scott started Pet Rescue Rx. Dr. Buckley knew he had found a way to continue to help both loved pets and pets in rescue.
Pet Rescue Rx is an online pet pharmacy where pet parents can get their prescription and over the counter pet medicines online, similar to some of the other online pet medication retailers. The big difference is that 100% of the net profits of Pet Rescue Rx go to pet rescues and shelters selected by their customers. Since their inception in 2013, Pet Rescue Rx has donated more than $170,000 to more than 700 pet rescue and shelter organizations. The company motto is “Peace, Love and Rescue.” They call themselves a “Pets before profits pharmacy.” Pet parents have options today on where they purchase their pets’ medications.
