The side effects from Hartz flea products are frightening:

yes, I saw the other thread too. I would never use ANY Hartz products on my dogs as many of their products have had fatal results. They shouldn't be on the shelves at all. It could very well be that this puppy is just not adjusting well right now. He needs to eat regularly to keep his energy up..not eating and only having nutrical could very well be why is so weak. The nutrical spikes up their blood sugar and then they crash....food will give a more steady increase and decrease in blood sugar. Also, he could have been rubbing up against the furniture because he wasn't used to his color...Rylie rubs against the furniture when I put his topknot up sometimes. I think it's a good idea to try and get this baby to eat regularly to keep his blood sugar steady and give him some time to adjust. If he does continue to show possible liver shunt symptoms or starts to go downhill instead of improving, he needs a BAT.
