| OMG!! We are encouraged to pump so many chemicals into and on our babies.....no wonder we see such an increase in cancers and allergic responses....I m 63...I do not ever remember hearing about so much cancer in dogs when I was growing up in the 50's, 60's or 70's....maybe it just wasnt being diagnosed back then, I know vet medicine has certainly changed from when I worked for a vet in the 60's....I dont know......gives me much cause for concern. |

Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member | i saw a picture on FB similar to this warning about using Hartz flea meds on dogs. The tech in the pic was holding on to the end of a flap of skin that started mid back and went all the way up to her neck where it was still attached. quite gross and painful for the doggie.

| thats what they are called its fleatreats.com all natural and my babies love them i give them twice a day after breakfast and dinner. so far no issues and they really love them. it says it takes a full month to work so for right now im cautious about where they are walking outside but so far not one tick.

| Thanks for posting this Brit. We use Revolution for Gizmo and he seems to do very well on it. No reactions like he had to heartguard.

Right now we have a problem with "BIRD MITES"little suckers are driving me crazy! and want to treat the dogs as well, to keep them from carrying the mites from one place to the other. Did he have any reaction the first time he took it? no vomiting or lethargy ?
