DELRAY BEACH, Fla., April 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- In celebration of National Pet Day, PetMed Express, Inc. (NASDAQ: PETS)—the original consumer pet healthcare company serving dogs, cats, and horses for nearly 30 years—will ring the Nasdaq Opening Bell this Friday, April 11, 2025.

This momentous occasion honors the powerful bond between people and their pets and will feature adoptable rescue dogs from Bidawee, one of the nation’s oldest no-kill animal welfare organizations. It’s a tribute to the joy and unconditional love pets bring into our lives–and a reminder of how many still await families of their own.

"Our pets are more than just animals; they are family," said Sandra Campos, President & CEO of PetMeds and PetCareRx^®. “As a pet parent to three rescue dogs, nine rescue horses, and one outspoken senior cat, I deeply understand the importance of accessible, preventative, healthcare at every life stage. We’re proud to mark this day by ringing the Opening Bell as a celebration of rescue pets and the families who open their hearts to them.”

As a champion of pet adoption and lifelong wellness, PetMeds actively supports rescue efforts across the country. Through its integrated PetMeds^® and PetCareRx^® platform, the company delivers healthy, better-for-your-pet essentials—from prescription medications to vet-recommended food and supplies—while providing trusted guidance, science-backed solutions, and a commitment to compassionate care.
