i was scared to death, but she napped and acted fine and after the fourth throw up she stopped gagging and was fine and she ate supper that night and hasn't had anything happen until last night.

i think she's okay, just worries me a lot

and she did just have her flea and tick meds yesterday which were changed to Vectra 3D or First Shield Trio (same thing)

i have another thread about this med, i'm not sure of it yet, but i called the ER vet tonight just to check and she said that it's a highly recommended flea and tick med. and that the throwing up as long as she's eating and drinking and acting herself she's ok


My vet switched over to Vectra 3d also and I won't use it.
I'm sticking with Frontline Plus. Vectra has a different pesticide in it
and it's been known to kill dogs. Check it out on line. The pesticide
is called Permethrin. Vet's buy whatever salesmen sell them. I don't believe they know what's in the stuff they recommened. If it weren't for TLC I would
be using this stuff. Don't panic just check for yourself and make your own
decision. I didn't like what I read about this pesticide. It's much stronger
than the other's.
