in the book if remember correctly it was a large town and it was safer to get the meds from the small pet store as the larger big name store were all being looted or already had been looted. I do see your point that the more rural areas may have had time to secure and round up vet supplies and vet stores. My own home town and surrounding farm towns all have multiple vet and equine services. Very important supplies to keep the farms going.
