CUBEX x Shepherd Integration

CUBEX integrates with Shepherd Veterinary Software, a cloud-based veterinary practice management system (PMS), to support streamlined patient data flow and automated dispensing workflows. This integration focuses specifically on patient and profile synchronization between systems, helping veterinary hospitals improve data consistency between their practice management system and CUBEX dispensing workflows.

What is Shepherd Veterinary Software?

Shepherd Veterinary Software (Shepherd Vet) is a modern, cloud-based veterinary practice management system (PMS) designed to help veterinary hospitals run more efficiently through centralized digital workflows.

It supports core hospital operations such as:


• Patient record management

• Appointment scheduling

• Clinical documentation

• Billing and invoicing

• Client communication


As a cloud-native platform, Shepherd enables veterinary teams to access patient data securely from anywhere, helping improve collaboration and operational efficiency across the hospital.

How the CUBEX x Shepherd Vet Integration Works

The CUBEX and Shepherd integration is one-directional and focused specifically on Patient and Profile data flow.

Patient and profile data are synced from Shepherd into CUBEX

Medication orders originate in Shepherd and are passed to CUBEX for dispensing

Billing is managed entirely within Shepherd and is not synchronized with CUBEX

Inventory is not shared or tracked between systems

It is important to note:

There is no bi-directional sync

There is no automatic writeback to Shepherd

Any medications dispensed from CUBEX must be manually recorded in Shepherd for patient records and invoicing

Key Benefits for Veterinary Hospitals
