Where To Buy Parvaid And Things You Need To Know

May 30th, 2009 · No Comments · News

The problem of where to buy Parvaid seems like it should be simple enough – all you need to do is 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 free of both chemicals and synthetics. It is both effective and safe. Sadly, it is not a chemical-based drug, which means that most vets trained in Western Medicine entirely dismiss organic products as just some alternative solution that can’t possibly work as it is not “FDA”-approved.

Herbal products that are classified as food supplements or botanicals, as in the case of Parvaid and all of the other products required to treat Parvo, 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 next to nothing about organic treatments, and on most occasions they will be quite dismissive of any product that wasn’t produced by a drug manufacturer as they receive plenty of financial incentives for pushing drugs from the big pharmaceutical companies; whereas the small independent herbalist can’t come close to matching the payoff levels that a company the size of Pfizer, for example, can use to incentivize a struggling vet.

So, trying to get inexpensive herbal products into established distribution chains is not easy. The financial rewards are not present, there will be much less residual income, which is because herbal products normally provide long-term relief compared to drugs that produce multiple side-effects creating a scenario of extra drugs to counter-act the side-effects, and to continue to put a sticking plaster on the problems, to the point where you might have to take pills and such indefinitely – which is a nice, steady earner for vets, month in, month out.

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 and natural products to treat all manner of ailments, but 200 years ago or so, drugs began to appear, massive marketing campaigns were launched claiming how marvelous drugs are and that they are the only route to good health, and so the propaganda machine went on full force.

The organic market could not then and by-and-large still cannot compete with fat cats and their deep pockets. If you brainwash people, day after day after day, with hype-filled ads that play on their emotions, they will get so worn down that they will come to believe the only viable solution is drugs.

Most people grow up with the “pop a couple of pills and all will be right” mentality. But in this day and age bugs (i.e. germs, bacteria, parasites, viruses) are getting very strong and immune to conventional treatments. You may find it easier to get your hands on chemical-based products but you probably won’t get the type 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 they are not mainstream and there are no big companies willing to promote this type of alternative treatment plan, you will not readily find these sorts of products in supermarkets, or even in the larger pet stores such as Pet Co or Pet Smart. You may, however, have some success if you look in small independent pet stores or feed 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.

So, here’s your dliemma: do you spend valuable time trying to hunt down a retail store within driving distance (which may be several hours away if you’re unlucky), in the hope that they stock all of the products you need, and then return home and try to cope by yourself as best you can, or you do buy the products online?

The advantage of buying from a retail store is that you will probably save some time and some money (i.e. you won’t incur any shipping costs, although you will pay for gas), but the disadvantage is that you will get absolutely zero support. 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 must examine exactly who is selling the products, how much experience do they have in case you need help, which happens more times than not, 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.

Also, check to see what types of shipping methods are available. If the only shipping method is USPS Priority Mail, this is a really good sign that they just don’t get it – Parvo is a deadly virus that kills at a frightening speed, and anything slower than FedEx or UPS Overnight services is just too slow. Some sites even offer free Priority Mail shipping, in an attempt to gain your business, but please don’t be tempted by these, because the money you think you’re saving will probably cost your dog his life, as you wait an extra one to three days for that life-saving package to arrive in the mail.

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 people offering 24×7 personal phone coaching (also at no additional charge).

If your property is infected with Parvo, assuming you have dogs, or with Feline Distemper, if you have cats (because, unfortunately, dogs can pass Parvo on to cats, where it manifests itself in the form of Feline Distemper, also known as Feline Panleukopenia), then it is more than likely that you will need some support (maybe at 3:00am on a Sunday morning, when you won’t be able to contact most vets or retail stores, of course) to help you through this horrific 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 don’t forget to check out the Parvaid testimonials kindly provided by some of our many satisfied customers.
