Sometimes we get to hung up on one thing when there are many ways to treat a problem and our own way is not the only way.[/QUOTE]


I have also used BOTH over 35 years for my Yorkies. I was shocked when just a few months ago I was told this information by my new young vet. Since I thought she would know more then I knew I followed her advice. I only passed the informatiion along since it had surprised me. MOST IMPORTANTLY is to consult your own Vet. If it is of interest the question can be asked and their advice should be followed. GOOD GRIEF. When will this end ?
