I am a dog lover by nature anyway, and the pit bulls I have encountered have always been just the sweetest most lovable dogs without exception.

All I saw was a picture of a puppy running. Looked like it might be a westie puppy. You should save your thousands of dollars and get a poodle. How can it look like a nice breed?

I am sorry that your vet somehow feels it is within his rights to do so. In the state of Pennsylvania, the Veterinary regulations only state the following concerning prescriptions: Principle 7 (c) - "In the choice of drugs, biologics or other treatments, veterinarians should use their professional judgment in the interests of the animal, based upon their knowledge of the condition, the probable effects of the treatment and the available scientific evidence which may affect these decisions." - So the law doesn’t make it illegal for a vet to deny a script request and certainly adds more questions. I must stress though, ethically and morally a vet should write a prescription. They are, after all, the DR. and you can and should get the meds filled at the pharmacy of your choice, not theirs. Just as you decide with your own medicines.
