As for heartworm prevention, I've only ever used Interceptor and that's all I'll ever use. It's very hard for the dog to overdose on it. We had a woman's Maltese open and eat an entire 6 month supply. It never fazed the dog. As said before Revolution also prevents heartworms. ALTHOUGH we've had a couple dogs come in that had been kept on Revolution get heartworms anyway. |
Thanks for your reply. Lilly has had Comfortis 2 different times and has been fine both times. She didn't show any side effects at all. With all the others she had as a smaller baby, she had a few small side effects. I really like it and I think it's a really good product as long as it's given as it's directed and for the correct weight of the dog.
Thanks for the insight about the heartworm preventative. I'll most likely see if he'll write me a script for Interceptor. Thank You!
