My vet suggested I give him pepto with the Iverhart Max... I said "no thanks".
He was on Heartgard for over 6 years and never had a reaction.
Hopefully the Iverhart was what was causing my Rocky's problem (  ). She said one other person said her dog had a reaction also... it was also a small dog.
My other dogs seemed fine with the Iverhart Max but I am switching them all back to Heartgard. |
I've used Intercepter for years...with no reaction......
Are you making sure that he has food in his stomach before giving it to him. It was a mistake that I was making early on.
I've heard that Revolution is great......it's a topical....protects against heart worm, and other worms, protection against mites and mange. The only problem is that it must be applied every 30 days....so you don't have a grace period like you do with Intercepter or Sentinal
