Shelters United is a group purchasing organization that allows animal welfare groups to purchase animal care supplies and products at discounted prices. Rescue organizations rely on a veterinarian of record to provide care for pets awaiting adoption and to purchase necessary prescription medications.
Since no VOR model exists to help veterinarians and rescue organizations work together in a productive, symbiotic and sustainable way, Shelters United is building a VOR program projected to improve relationships between veterinarians and animal rescue organizations
