Levi & Korsinsky is investigating the Board of Directors of Pet DRx Corporation (“Pet DRx” or the “Company”) (NasdaqCM: VETS) for possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law in connection with their attempt to sell the Company to VCA Antech Inc. ("VCA Antech ") (NasdaqGS: WOOF). Under the terms of the transaction, Pet DRx shareholders will receive in the range of $0.34 to $0.36 in cash for each Pet DRx share of common stock they own for a total transaction value of approximately $41.25 million, including the pay down of approximately $28.5 million in debt.

VCA Antech will acquire PET DRx in two stages. In the first stage, VCA Antech will acquire a majority of the shares of the Company (on a fully diluted basis) pursuant to a stock purchase agreement entered into among VCA Antech, PET DRx, and certain selling stockholders, which is expected to close within 30 days. In the second stage, VCA Antech will acquire the remaining issued and outstanding shares of the Company pursuant to a merger agreement.

The investigation concerns whether the Pet DRx Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties to Pet DRx stockholders by failing to adequately shop the Company before entering into this transaction and whether VCA Antech is underpaying for Pet DRx shares, thus unlawfully harming Pet DRx stockholders. In particular, Pet DRx stock traded at $0.50 per share as recently as February 12, 2010 and the Company has a book value of $0.64 per share.
