I have all 9 yorkies on Revolution and it prevents fleas, mites, heartworms all and it prevents the potential cycle that can occur if you only use heartworm prevention of flea issues like tape worms. It does not treat tapeworms but prevents them by controlling the fleas. With coupons you can get 12 for $130. You can get ones that are for under 5 labs and okay for puppies over 3 months of age with VET approval. I buy 9 every month! I am on very limited income and when I consider the potential disaster that could occur if I don't treat for prevention of fleas (tapeworms) or don't treat for prevention of heartworms, I could rival the national debt. It hurts but the alternative is devastating. I am hoping my little rescue puppy with the open frontel will be placed next month with a forever parent who agrees to have his surgery before final adoption. I am looking for someone in central FL that works for a vet and can get the surgery at a significant discount. I have kept him to keep him safe until 6 months of age at which time he can have the surgery. I will be down to 8 then and I probably will keep them. I had 10 until a few weeks back when my 17 yr old Bentley passed away. No more rescues for me. I am just going to have to use duct tape on my mouth when people talk about turning their yorkies into a shelter because I am barely holding on just keeping everyone immunized, prevention treatment and vet visits as needed. I highly recommend Revolution. I have been using it on all my yorkies for over 5 months now and they range in weight from 2.5 lb to 6 lbs. and range in age form 5 months to 9 years of age.
