Straight answers.
The things owners actually ask before starting. If yours isn't here, the vet answers it during the review.
Are peptides safe for dogs?
Peptides are used under veterinary supervision, and the protocols petpides offers are prescription-only after a licensed vet reviews the dog's file. Research in dogs is still early, so no outcome is guaranteed. They are not prescribed for pregnant or nursing dogs, dogs with active cancer, or dogs under two, and every batch is third-party tested for purity and endotoxins.
Do I need a prescription and a vet visit?
You need a prescription, and it comes from a telehealth review — not an in-person visit. A licensed veterinarian in your state reads the intake you submit, asks any follow-up questions, and prescribes a weight-based dose only if a peptide protocol is appropriate for your dog.
How much does it cost?
Protocols run $79 to $109 per month depending on the peptide, with free shipping. The price is flat year-round — no introductory rates and no auto-escalating quantities. If the vet declines your dog, you are charged nothing.
How long until I see a difference?
In the limited canine data, owners who noticed a change reported it between roughly week three and week six. Some dogs do not respond at all. Your vet schedules a check-in around week four and will tell you plainly which group your dog is in.
Which peptide is right for my dog?
That is the vet's call, made from your dog's file — not a menu choice. Mobility (BPC-157) is for stiffness and stairs, Recovery (TB-4) is for post-surgical rehab, and Skin & Coat (GHK-Cu) is for thinning coats and slow-healing skin. The two-minute match quiz routes the file to the right review.
Can my dog stay on his current joint supplement or NSAID?
Usually yes, but the reviewing vet confirms it against his file, which is why the intake asks for every current medication. Do not change an existing prescription on your own.
Is petpides available in my state?
Veterinary telehealth is licensed state by state. petpides currently reviews files in twelve states including Texas, California, Florida, and New York, and the network is expanding. Enter your state in the match quiz and we confirm availability before anything is booked.
How do I cancel?
In two clicks, any month, with no retention hoops. Subscriptions never auto-increase the quantity you receive.
Still deciding?
The match quiz takes two minutes, and a licensed vet — not an algorithm — reads the result. Nothing ships until they do.
