I buy a veterinary grade vaccine for my dog from Great Britain. I'm sure it contains a few micrograms of aluminum salts (those RFK Jr. doesn't like) as a stabilizer. And now I need to pay a 100% tariff on the aluminum?

What are you vaccinating your dog against that you need to purchase multiple doses from overseas?

Is there even a dog?

There's a lot of stuff for animals that is rx only in the US, but not controlled medication, so people end up buying it overseas as it's not really enforced and even if it were the penalties would be weak.

Stuff like flea medication and rabies vaccine comes to mind.

We regret but have to temporary suspend the shipments to USA
