Your dog's medication,
handled like a vet would.
Insulin with breakfast. Seizure medication every twelve hours. A calming protocol that has to land forty-five minutes before the aisle. If your dog takes medication, the wedding day cannot bend their schedule, so we keep it. Your handler has a veterinary medicine background, administers veterinarian-prescribed medication on time, and logs every dose.
Talk to us about your dogMedication is the one thing a friend can't wing.
On a wedding day everyone is busy, and the person holding the leash is usually juggling a bouquet too. Doses get late, get skipped, or get guessed at. For a diabetic, epileptic, or cardiac dog, that is not a small slip. Our veterinary medicine background means giving oral, topical, or injectable medication is routine work: right dose, right time, proper storage, and eyes trained to catch a reaction early.
Before the wedding we collect the full plan from you and your veterinarian: what your dog takes, when, with or without food, and what to watch for. On the day, it happens on your dog's normal clock, not the wedding's.
Meet your handler
Daily medication, special protocols, and everything between.
Daily & chronic medication
Insulin, seizure medication, heart and thyroid medication, allergy treatment, and pain management for arthritic seniors, given at their usual times with their usual routine, food and all.
Vet-prescribed calming plans
If your veterinarian prescribes situational calming medication for the event, we follow the written protocol exactly: dose, lead time, and the quiet decompression window while it takes effect.
Proper storage & timing
Refrigerated medication stays cold, timed doses get set alarms, and every dose is logged. You get a simple record of what was given and when, so nothing about the day is a mystery.
Trained eyes afterward
Administering is half the job; observing is the other half. We watch for vomiting, lethargy, low blood sugar, and reactions after dosing, and we are pet CPR certified if a real emergency ever arises.
Medication questions, answered.
Can you give my dog their medication during our wedding?
Yes. We administer veterinarian-prescribed oral, topical, and injectable medication on schedule during the wedding day. Your handler has a veterinary medicine background, so giving medication is routine work, not a favor we are nervous about.
My dog is diabetic and needs insulin timed with meals. Is that possible on a wedding day?
Yes, and timing is exactly why this should not fall to a busy friend. We keep your dog's feeding and insulin schedule on their normal clock, store the insulin properly, and watch for the early signs of low blood sugar a layperson can miss. We coordinate the plan with you and your veterinarian before the day.
Can you follow my vet's calming protocol for the wedding?
Yes. If your veterinarian has prescribed a situational calming medication, we follow the protocol exactly as written: the dose, the lead time before the ceremony, and the quiet decompression your vet recommends while it takes effect. We never dose a dog outside the written plan. For nervous dogs generally, see our page on anxious & special-needs dog care.
What does medication administration cost?
It is a small flat add-on to any package, priced openly like everything else we do. See services & pricing for current package and add-on prices.
