The question of where to buy Parvaid seems like it should be simple enough – just go to the local store and pick up a bottle.
Sorry, that’s just too easy; it is a little more involved than that.
Parvaid is an herbal product that is both synthetic and chemical-free. It is both effective and safe. Sadly, it is not a chemical-based drug, which means that most vets trained in traditional Western Medicine totally discount organic products as nothing but some alternative solution that can’t possibly work as it is not approved by the FDA.
Herbal products that are food supplements or botanicals, as in the case of Parvaid and its related products, do not need to be evaluated by the FDA and therefore do not have to be approved by the US Food and Drug Administration.
Whenever you run into non-traditional and non-mainstream products, you will find a wall of resistance. Most vets appear to know practically nothing about organic treatments, and on many occasions they will be quite dismissive of any product that does not come from a drug manufacturer as they receive a lot of financial incentives for pushing drugs from the big pharmaceutical companies; the small, independent herbalist, on the other hand, can’t match the payoff levels that a Pfizer can dangle in front of a struggling vet.
It’s therefore very hard to get inexpensive herbal products into established distribution chains. The financial rewards are not present, there will be much less residual income, i.e. because herbal products usually provide long-term relief compared to drugs that produce an array of side-effects creating a scenario of extra drugs to counter-act the side-effects, and all this ever does is to put a sticking plaster on the problems, to the point where you could end up taking pills and such for the rest of your life – and that, of course, brings in a steady flow of cash each month.
What it boils down to is this – vets could get paid once (by really treating the problem and not the symptoms) or they could get paid many times, so it’s not too surprising that they choose the latter option.
Sadly, there used to be a proud tradition in this country of using organic products to solve all kinds of ailments, but 200 years ago or so, drugs began to surface, massive marketing campaigns were set in motion proclaiming how terrific drugs are and that they are the only road to good health, and so the propaganda machine continued at full force.
Companies in the organic marketplace have never been able to compete with the pharmaceutical fat cats, with their deep pockets, and for the most part, still can’t. If you play ads hundreds of times a day that fill people with hype, work on their emotions, and basically wear them down, they will think there are no other viable solutions and therefore the drugs must be the answer.
The “pop a couple of pills and everything will be OK” mentality is all that most people know, because it’s what they grew up with. But in this day and age bugs (i.e. bacteria, parasites, viruses, germs) are getting stronger and stronger and immune to traditional treatments. Chemical-based drugs are much easier to find, but it’s highly likely that they won’t offer you the level of relief that you need.
Products like Parvaid work with the body, and not against, it, to help it heal from within. If you could go to your local market and pick up this type of organic product, that would be great, but as there are no big companies willing to promote these “non-standard” treatments, you will rarely find these sorts of products in supermarkets, or even in any of the larger pet stores such as Pet Smart of Pet Co. You may, however, be more likely to find what you’re looking for if you look in small independent feed stores or pet stores.
But there are some things you need to be aware of first.
Most of the smaller retailers selling Parvaid just carry this product like any other product, and they know nothing about how it works or how to use it successfully. For them this is just another product on the shelf.
Now, in order to maximize your dog’s chance for a successful recovery, you will need to know how to use this product and you will also have to administer several home remedies for Parvo in conjunction. Unfortunately, most retailers neither have the necessary knowledge nor expertise.
Another crucial factor is that the manufacturer now specifies a minimum requirement for four different products to treat dogs with Parvo (as well as exposed adult dogs), and yet many retailers do not carry the full set of required products.
This leaves you with a dilemma: spend valuable time hunting down a retail store in your area (and this could be hundreds of miles away) and hope that they have what you need product-wise, and then come home and deal with your sick pets on your own as best you can, or you could buy the products online.
Now of course, if you buy from the retail store it would save some a bit of time (and perhaps some money as you would not have to pay for shipping – just gas and time), but you will not get any support whatsoever. If anything does go wrong, because no matter how good the products are (and they are!), some dogs don’t respond to the standard treatment protocols for any number of reasons and therefore need adjusted dosage schedules, you’ll probably find that you’ll get no help from the store you bought the products from as they simply won’t have the knowledge and experience that you’ll need.
If you decide to buy Parvaid online, then you have to look at who is selling the products, how much experience do they have should you need help, which is most of the time, and how reliable is their website.
The Internet is well known for being a place where websites will take your money and run, without ever delivering what you ordered.
One way you can tell is to look for the quantity of Parvo information that is on their website. If there is very little info then they probably don’t know much about it and are just selling another product.
Something else to look out for is the range of shipping methods that they use. If they only offer USPS Priority Mail for example, that means they have no clue about how deadly this virus is and time is against you, so UPS or FedEx Overnight services are the ONLY acceptable shipping methods for sick animals.
We’ve dealt with 870 cases of Parvo (and counting), we only use FedEx Overnight for sick animals (Monday – Saturday deliveries), we make available a 100+ page book that we wrote all about Parvo, called Parvo Treatment 101, which you can download to your computer instantly and completely free of charge, we’ve developed a comprehensive Parvo Home Remedy Plan that will help sustain your dog until the products can be delivered, and we are the only company who offer all customers completely free and unlimited 24 x 7 phone support and personal coaching.
If you have Parvo on your property in the case of dogs, or Feline Distemper in the case of cats (unfortunately, cats can become infected from Parvo dogs in the form of Feline Distemper), then you will need support throughout this horrifying ordeal.
You’ll find a load more information to help you get your sick pets back on their feet again on our ParvoBuster website, and while you’re there, don’t forget to check out the Parvaid testimonials that other satisfied customers have left.
