YT 3000 Club Member | my vet has been selling this and he has had good luck with it, my friend uses it on her yorkie puppy and he a big guy, supposed to be better than frontline, because of the way it works, wont quit working like the others have. depending on the size you can put half a dose on |

Sentinel is one I am certainly considering as well. I just want to have a few good names of products to go talk to my vet about to switch to. right now he has my Shih Tzu on Trifexis. although we have never had problems with it, it is expensive and I decided Id rather just switch and be safe with all the stuff being said about it. My yorkie pup hasnt been started yet, but I know I dont want her on Trifexis. Last edited by R-Teddy; 02-08-2014 at 10:16 AM. | |

| Bella is on the topical Revolution. It has a single active ingredient that is effective against fleas, heartworms, dog ticks, and internal parasites. It comes in dosing sizes for dogs under 5 pounds, and Bella has tolerated it well. She is itchy and runs around right after I apply it, but she's back to normal within 15 minutes. |
