VCPR DISCLAIMER

I understand that a VCPR is not established by electronic consultations; VCPR can be established only after a veterinarian’s house call or in-person visit to a veterinarian’s office and can then be maintained through electronic means.

By creating an account on the Application for my pet, I certify that I am the legal owner or guardian of the pet and responsible for all medical decisions for the pet. I acknowledge that I use the Application at my own risk, and I am entirely responsible for the decisions made based on information provided on the Application or by the Company. I understand that any opinion given through the Application is the opinion of the treating veterinary professional and not of the Company, and the Company disclaims any and all liability whatsoever in connection therewith. I acknowledge that the Company has the right to end any relationship with me at any time if the terms of this Agreement are violated.
