Roxy had an engored tick embedded in her paw-leg last spring.

Took her to the Vet and she was put on antib's, the Vet said I REALLY need to apply the Frontline. I voiced my concerns, and he said he understands, but from his side - seeing the diseases first hand, that they are far worse than the product.

After 1 week, Roxy was not getting better and had to go on a stronger antib. Thankful she didn't catch a disease.

My area is VERY tick ridden, so I won't be taking any more chances....
