I have never had to use a treatment more than once in a year, and some years have not had to use it at all.
I also do not routinely worm puppies and have never had a puppy with worms. And I get them vaccinated every 3 years, not every year.
I think we are poisoning our dogs with all of the pesticides and vaccinations that we inject into them.
I go by the theory "if it's not broke, don't fix it". |
Thats what I do. I only treat mine when they have fleas. So far Ive only had to do it once this year
