Really? I suppose there might be such a place, with different shop counters, different staff, different back rooms full of medicines, etc., but I'd expect it to be a normal pharmacy that also carries some veterinary medicines. There are 3 pharmacies in my town and one vet (there used to be two vets; there's another pharmacy being set up). None of the pharmacies have a separate counter for veterinary medicines but I know that at least one of them dispenses them because my next-door-neighbout with three dogs and two cats gets them from somewhere, and she's not travelling to either of the two cities over 30 miles away to get them. In a really big city I suppose there could be a veterinary-only pharmacy. So we may need amenity=veterinary_pharmacy for rare cases but for most instances we'll need something that goes along with amenity=pharmacy (and/or healthcare=pharmacy) to indicate it also handles veterinary medicines. -- Paul
