I think that is what his breeder implied by this clause. When I was new to yorkie parenting, I just did what she told me to do. I didn't want to violate the health contract.

Now I'm just asking others if there is any new research to consider and what everyone's opinion on the issue is these days.

I think we're going to stay with Interceptor. I'll get a written prescription from our vet and order the meds online.
