Welcome to Ask Ariel!
We are so glad you are visiting our site. We are located in Dana Point -- Orange County, CA. We know how stressful it is when your pet isn't feeling well, and want to make your transactions with us easy and worry-free. We take pride in offering compassionate customer care and offer a service guarantee. Transparency is the key to building trust so we want you to have all the facts about us before you make a purchase. We always recommend consulting with your veterinarian if you have any concerns about whether or not a product would be right for your pet.

Email: [email protected] (Fastest and Best Way to Reach Us)
Email is the fastest and best way to reach us. Most pet owners have in depth questions and to provide you with a meaningful answer from a qualified professional, we need specifics. Email enables us to answer your question more thoroughly as we can include links and information to get help for your pet in a prompt and effective manner. Please know that due to veterinary regulations that require a physical exam, we cannot provide any individualized consultative advice.
 The Davis Family
Service Guarantee
We know you need help and we want to provide you with a fast response. We guarantee that we will respond to your email within 24 hours (please allow extra time for weekends and National holidays). We take time to answer EVERY email we receive. If you don't receive a response, please be sure to check the email address entered.
What To Expect When You Send Us An Email
We want very much to help your pet feel better! We will do our best to answer product questions, concerns about ordering and can offer you links to articles about which supplements are used to address a particular health concern. For over 10 years we offered telephone and in person appointments with Susan Davis Pet Nutritionist and Dr. David Gordon, holistic veterinarian. However veterinary regulations have changed stipulating that consultative advice may only be provided following a physical examination of the pet. As a result, please understand that as much as we would like to help, we will adhere to veterinary regulations and cannot review medical information, prescription/diet protocols or provide any type of consultative advice over email. We will be glad to direct you to information on our website that provides general information about symptoms or health concerns, but we cannot analyze your pet's information or provide you with veterinary or consultative advice. For example, please do not send us your pet's laboratory test results as we cannot make an evaluation over email.
If you include information about your pet's diet on the order form at checkout, Susan Davis, our nutritionist, will be happy to include a free diet suggestion on the packing slip that comes with your order. The diet suggestion is general information and tips that are important in helping a pet's health condition. We do not however, provide any ongoing veterinary support or nutritional advice over email. We cannot provide emergency veterinary assistance. If your pet is needing urgent care, please contact your veterinarian right away.
What To Expect When You Place An Order
- At checkout, we ask for you to please provide your pet's information, including species, age, weight, diet, treats and health issues so we can include diet tips on the packing slip that comes with the product directions.
- After you place your order, you will receive an order confirmation from [email protected].
- If your order is placed before 10:00 am PT M-F, it will be shipped same day. Otherwise, it will be shipped on the next business day. Orders cannot be canceled or modified as they are immediately uploaded to our fulfillment company.
- Once your order is shipped, a confirmation email with tracking information will be sent to you from our fulfillment company. Please be sure to check your spam file in case you don't see the email.
- If you have any questions about your order, please don't hesitate to email us at [email protected].
- We are located on the West Coast and once your order is shipped, it usually takes between 2 - 5 business days in transit to receive, depending upon your location and the time of year.

Our Non-Refundable Policy
Ask Ariel offers the best pet vitamins and supplements fresh from the manufacturer to guarantee potency. Many of our formulas are sensitive to heat and moisture so we want to be sure you receive a fresh product that we know how long it has been in inventory. Only the best. For these reasons, we do not accept returns. If you are in doubt that the products are right for your pet, please consult with your veterinarian BEFORE ordering. We cannot make guarantees or promises. We operate Ask Ariel with the utmost integrity and want more than anything for your pet to get better using the finest human-grade, veterinary-approved supplements available for pets.
Orders over $200 (before discounts), or when we determine it's necessary (ex: during the holidays or apartments in urban areas), will be shipped with Signature Required. If this poses an issue, please contact us prior to placing your order. If the post office is unable to deliver, these unclaimed packages will incur a $20 return processing fee.
Veterinary Approval
In certain cases, written approval from your veterinarian may be required.
Ask Ariel reserves the right to refuse service to anyone.
