Bella Boo & Diggy Too! Donating GS Member | Revolution Question If you use revolution....Does your baby ever bite at his butt and itch excessively?? I put it on Diggy today at 2 pm and he is itching and biting at right above his tail.....he goes all 4's up on the floor and barks and growls in a very playful way not in pain or anything... He also is walking around th yard bucking which is a new trick we started today. Maaybe a learned behavior as Bella does it afetr she pees or poo's but he never di it before and he is just walking around doing it no pooing or peeing just bucking!!! Anyone have ideas on either of these things he is doing and why????

| Paddington uses revolution. Sometimes he bits his tail, but I never thought about it being a reaction from the revolution! He doesn't seem itchy otherwise though. Sorry it's not much help -O

| Like all of the flea meds, revolution does have chemicals, so it wouldn't be odd that your baby might be acting that way after application. They are also processed through the liver, and revolution is supposed to be one of the safer ones for the liver. I hope he stops itching soon!

| hmmm.... I put it on him about two weeks ago, and since I wasn't thinking about it, I don't remember if that is the same day I noticed him biting his tail.... I didn't notice any reaction at all with his first dose; this last one was his second. sorry -O

| I use Revolution on my yorkies and my German Shephard cross. My yorkies do fine but my German Shephard cross goes running crazy when she gets it. It's never hurt her and she's always stopped after a short while, but she's the only one that reacts that way. I suppose that it could be a reaction to it. I never thought about that, I always thought that she was just mad at us for putting something on her. |

| you know, Bear DID act crazy, with the zoomies etc. when I gave it to him, but I thought it was just because he was still hyper from seeing the other dogs at the vet. I also do remember him "chasing his tail" which is hilarious because he has no tail to chase! Maybe that was the day I noticed him biting, too.... IDK; I'll let you know in a couple weeks when he gets his next dose, I guess! I wish he was due for a doe of it now so that we could see. -O

My Lil Man! Donating Member | I dont use Revolution, but I do use Frontline Plus and whenever I put it on Reeses, he goes psycho. He runs around and flips around on the bed in the covers and when you try to get him settled down he will be quivering like he is cold. But as soon as you lay down with him and take a town and wrap around him he calms down and is fine. I always do it right before we go to bed so he wont want to have his lil spell all day because once we go to bed he is fine from then on. Now I put it on him and put a towel over his neck where I put the stuff and then about 30 minutes later after it has had time to kinda dry a lil bit we go to bed. He doesnt have his spells when I do this. You could try that...just put it on him at bedtime and lay a towel over it and lay down on bed with him for about 30 min and then go to bed. Just a thought. Lol. Goodluck!! |
