Typically, the IV solution shipped from Penn Care, Inc. has been used by EMS departments and hospitals around the U.S. to rehydrate patients in dire need of fluids. The beneficiaries of this simple treatment have usually been humans. Creative veterinarians, however, have begun to seek out online EMS supplies distributors to keep their animals healthy.
Above you’ll find a picture of Moose, an Old English Sheepdog obviously deficient of his required fluids. After receiving a steady dose of 0.9% sodium chloride IV solution for several minutes, Moose’s electrolytes were replenished and he was back on his feet and ready to play.
The key lesson to this story is that veterinarians have begun to leverage online resources to keep their inventory freshly stocked. This ensures that pets and their owners are always guaranteed a treatment is available when they need it most!
