RHINELANDER, Wis., Nov. 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Just in time for the holidays, one leading pet supplier has decided to give a little back this season. Concerned the economy might be making the price of pet care an obstacle to some owners, Drs. Foster and Smith has eliminated standard shipping costs for all of its pet healthcare products.

"As veterinarians, our goal is to provide our customers with the knowledge and affordable products to ensure that their pets live long and healthy lives," co-founder Dr. Race Foster explains. "To make this even more affordable, we're offering free shipping on all dog and cat healthcare items, and have dropped ground shipping on all other products to a low flat rate."

Dr. Marty Smith adds, "Our website is also a tremendous resource for pet owners looking for ways to save money by taking care of their pets at home. You can watch dozens of 'How To' videos on topics ranging from home vaccination to dental care to removing a tick. And you'll find information on nearly any other pet related topic in one of our expansive article archives."

The veterinary staff at Drs. Foster and Smith Pet Supplies encourages pet owners feeling the pinch this holiday season to take advantage of these resources and products by visiting DrsFosterSmith.com.
