HANDLING/SERVICE CHARGES
Orders under $25.00 incur a $3.00 service charge.
We would love for you to order anything you like. Even the smallest orders are important to us. However, because our prices are discounted, and in order to keep our prices to you at the lowest possible level, we must charge a $3.00 service fee on orders under $25.00.
PRICE CHANGES
Because we deal with literally hundreds of suppliers and manufacturers and suppliers' prices change, our prices are in constant flux. Prices in our internet catalogue are kept current on a daily basis and are rarely different than the site shows. However, we are not responsible for typographical errors, and prices and availability are subject to change without notice.
Prices in our printed catalog are sometimes not as current as we'd like due to the fact that print is impossible to change after it is printed. Prices on the internet will always be more current than those of the printed catalog and will be deemed to be the right price regardless of the printed materials.
BACKORDERS AND DISCONTINUED
For standard-sized backordered items, freight will be calculated on the entire order, charged on the first part, and the backordered items will be sent as quickly as possible with no additional freight charges. Oversized-backordered items (those marked with *'s or ++) will be charged the actual freight when they are shipped.
If we don't anticipate re-stock of an item in a reasonable amount of time, your order will be shipped minus the out of stock item, and you will be asked to re-order at another time.
Discontinued items will, of course, not be shipped.
You will receive a notice on your emailed invoice indicating the dispensation of any items not shipped.
SIZES
No two animals are alike. We will print the most accurate details possible of item sizes and recommendations for fit if we know them. However, all sizes are approximate, and we can NOT guarantee items as far as the fit for your individual pet.
Bedding is sized as human linens are sized - before the seams are sewn and the item is stuffed. Therefore, when the item is stuffed, it's apparent length and width may seem smaller than the un-stuffed dimensions.
Collars are different from different manufacturers. Some print a measurement that is from tip of buckle to tip of material. Others measure from middle of buckle to longest hole. We try to make this clear on the site and give you a general idea of how to measure to get a good fit. Of course, the fit is not exact nor guaranteed due to the variation in individuals. If your pet is likely to gain weight or grow, you will also want to plan a little extra growing room.
All dimensions are approximate. We try to be as accurate as possible but do not guarantee precision beyond accuracy within an inch or so.
TAX
SPECIAL ORDERS
For special Order Items, any warranty or shipping damage issues are worked out through the manufacturer directly. We'll be glad to provide the contact information.Special Order Items may not be returnable. If returnable, they require a Return Merchandise Authorization prior to return, must be returned directly to the manufacturer, and will be charged a 25% - 50% restocking charge.Call for Return Merchandise Authorization or for further details about Special Order Items. 1-512-282-3003 M-F 9:00 am. to 5:00 pm.

DEFECTIVE MERCHANDISE
We purchase from the most reputable manufacturers and there is rarely an issue with defective products. However, factories make the occassional mistake.
If an item doesn't work properly, please call the manufacturer (listed in the product literature) or e-mail our customer service department to report the problem immediately. In most cases (because we're not experts at diagnosing problems), we will put you into direct touch with the manufacturer.
In all cases, save all of the packaging and packing materials and call our customer service department within 24 hours. (1 business day)of receipt. 1-888-738-3976.
Defective items will be replaced with the identical item or handled by the manufacturer directly.
If a package appears to have obvious damage on the outside which may affect the product inside, please refuse shipment at your door or ask the carrier to note the damage on his shipping manifest and call our customer service department within 24 hours to report any damage sustained.
If you find damage subsequent to delivery, save all of the packaging and packing materials and call our customer service department within 24 hours (1 business day) of receipt. 1-512-282-3003 or 1-888-738-3976.
For Motor Freight Deliveries: The customer must inspect the delivered item for damage (both external and not visible from the outside) upon receipt of the merchandise. That requires removing any shrink wrapping, cardboard or other packing materials so that all aspects can be inspected. Any damage should be noted on the carrier's acceptance report, and such damage reported to DataWeb within 24 hours of delivery.
In all cases of damage, save all of the packaging and packing materials and call our customer service department within 24 hours (1 business day) of receipt. 1-512-282-3003.

UPS Definition of Shipping Time
FREIGHT CHARGES FOR ORDERS WITHIN LOWER 48 CONTINENTAL U.S.
In some places in our catalog, items are listed in case quantities. For those items, orders of multiple single packs will be billed at multiple pack rates where the number of individual items equals the multiple pack.
Because we have not anticipated all possible large volume or extra heavy purchases to single individuals, heavy or large volume orders may incur extra shipping above that calculated by the order cart. We reserve the right to limit quantities and/or charge actual shipping charges on bulk quantity orders weighing over 20 Lbs.
| Standard Shipping Contiguous 48 States | |
|---|---|
| $1.00 to $50.00 add | $7.95 |
| $50.01 to $75.00 add | $8.95 |
| $75.01 to $100.00 add | $9.95 |
| over $100 add | $10.95 |
|
Some items incur Oversize Shipping charges added to the standard charges above. Those items will have the oversize charge detailed in their description line in the order cart and the charge will be added to the item's price.
ie: * AP169C Pondcare Algaefix, 1 gal (includes $3 heavy/oversize shipping)
Some items (particularly items shipped by Motorfreight) may need to have freight calculated individually for each order depending on the destination. Most will have a drop-down box in the order window that prepares you for the added charge that will not appear in the checkout but will be added to your order in our warehouse.
An example looks like this: | |
|
Items most likely to have such extra charges are aluminum dog boxes, modular kennel runs, extra large bird cages etc. | |
OVERSIZED ITEMS
An oversized item is one whose weight may be under 30 Lb. but whose physical dimensions and bulky appearance take up extra room in the cargo area of the shipper's transport vehicles. These items are charged for 30 Lb of weight even though they do not weigh 30 Lb.
A double oversized item is one whose weight is over 30 Lbs and under 70 Lb. but whose physical dimensions and bulky appearance take up extra room in the cargo area of the shipper's transport vehicles. These items are charged for 70 Lb of weight even though they do not weigh 70 Lb.
WAREHOUSE PICK UP
Shipping time = order processing time + shipping option you have chosen on your order.
Please allow several days for standard delivery of most items within the continental US. Domestic UPS takes 1-5 business working days for delivery. We can usually ship your order from our warehouse or the warehouse of the manufacturer or supplier within 1-3 working days of receipt of the order.
UPS, Fed Ex, US Postal Service, and the shipping departments of our suppliers are not under our employ, and we cannot guarantee exact delivery.
Because the arrival time of your order is often dictated by conditions which are out of our control, we would rather err on the side of caution than promise our customers what others may not be able to do.
We will not normally be alarmed nor trace any usual ground shipments until at least 5 days after shipping.
Express UPS shipments are guaranteed by UPS to arrive on schedule. UPS Ground and USPS postal priority are not guaranteed by the shipper to arrive on any special time schedule.To find out how long UPS Ground Transportation usually takes from Future Pets to you, go to UPS Transit Time and type in our Texas zip code: 78154. Add two working days (after the first working day we receive the order) to the transit time. That gives the order time to leave our warehouse.
While this is not a guarantee of delivery on that exact time schedule it is usually fairly realistic.
If timing is critical, please specify Next Day, 2nd day or 3 day Select delivery. Those items, obviously, will get special attention and express handling from our order department to you.
See more details about shipping charges and timing on rush orders.

HOW WE DELIVER AK, HI, APO & U.S. TERRITORIES, PO BOXES
Yes, we can ship to Alaska, Hawaii, and U.S. territories outside the contiguous 48 states and to PO Boxes by U.S. Postal Service or Postal Priority Mail. Additionally, sensitive to the plight of our many troops in foreign countries, we can now ship to APO or FPO addresses. Please designate "Priority Mail" as your Primary Shipping Method and expect *extra charges of approximately $1.25 per pound for that delivery. (See regular shipping chart above and add approx $1.25 per lb)Most orders to Postal addresses ship by Priority mail with additional charges that may not show in the order cart (* see above). Orders to Alaska, Hawaii, and U.S. territories outside the contiguous 48 states that request UPS Ground service will also be charged additional charges (higher than Postal)due to the added expense of that service to those outlying areas.Some extra heavy or dense items may ship regular post (i.e. foods or litter etc). Aerosols and some products with hazardous contents such as pesticides (defined by the govt) cannot ship by air. In those cases, shipping times are longer and no tracking is provided by the U.S. Post Office, which complicates the process. Although we anticipate few problems, we can make no guarantees of adequate delivery.
Unfortunately, many of our distributors and suppliers will not ship by U.S. Postal Service. Therefore, some items incur longer shipping time as they must be shipped to our Texas warehouse before being sent to these addresses. They may also incur an additional charge for shipping to the warehouse before shipping to you.
Vaccine shipments are not available to outside U.S. 48, International or APO/FPO customers.
OVERSIZED ITEMS GOING TO AK, Hi, APO & U.S. TERRITORIES
Handling charges are charged on oversized items - items marked with asterix's
Double Oversize items incur an additional charge of $120.00 added to the regular APO/FPO, Ak, Hi, and territories shipping charges. Most of those will be designated with an oversize shipping charge higher than $15 in their description line.ie: * AP169 Pondcare Algaefix, 5 gal (includes $24 heavy/oversize shipping)
Some items such as large pet beds, carriers, crates, cat furniture, kennel equipment, large bird cages and other bulky or heavy items are unable to ship by U.S. Post due to size restrictions, and can therefore, not be shipped to these addresses. If you are in doubt, email our shipping department. We will need the item number, item description, and the exact address where you would like it shipped.
SHIPPING TIME TO APO & U.S. TERRITORIES
We can usually ship your order from our warehouse within 12-48 hours of receipt of the order. However, most of our suppliers will not ship by post. Therefore, APO/FPO orders are usually shipped only from the home location of Future Pets in Austin, Texas. This sometimes occasions some delay in shipping while an item travels from its original supplier to Texas FIRST and is then shipped to you.
The arrival time of your order is also dictated by conditions which are out of our control. We would rather err on the side of caution than promise our customers what others may not be able to do.
Usual U.S. Postal Priority timing should be calculated for all orders outside the contiguous 48 states. APO/FPO Post can take from 2-6 weeks to reach you.
EXPRESS SHIPPING TO APO & U.S. TERRITORIES
Most APO/FPO addresses have the following general restrictions:
* Packages may not exceed 70 lbs. (Some zip codes have lower limits) * Packages may not exceed 130 inches in combined length and girth. (This means if you have a package that is 100" in length and 40" when you measure around it, you cannot send the item) * All packages must be sent via the U.S. Postal System. The post office also requires companies or individuals to hand deliver packages being sent to APO/FPO addresses. (This is one reason why many merchants won't ship to APO/FPO addresses.) * Firearms, alcohol, perishable food items and certain hazardous items also are restricted. Each zip code may have an even more detailed list of the restrictions for certain types of products.
