After putting it on her she starts to prance around the living room. She would go to one bed and roll around then to her other bed and do the same thing. When I would take her outside to potty she would lay down on the grass and roll around as if she was trying to get it off her. We went to bed and she had me up three times in the night. I would take her out and she did have to pee once but the other two times she just stood there looking around. We went out for Easter supper last night so I thought maybe she wasn't tired and just didn't want to stay in bed, but now I am wondering if it has something to do with the Advantage. DH and I were talking about it this morning and he thinks it could be the Advantage also. She just wasn't herself yesterday and loiking back it was the same thing last month. Has anyone else that uses Advantage had problems with it. I checked where I applied it and there is no redness and she seems her old self today. Is there anything else that I can use that is effective. maybe something taken orally. Thanks |
Snowbird, glad you mentioned this. The first time the vet put Advantage on BJ during her checkup. Last time he sent me home with a pack of 6 which he charged me $118.00 for. I saw it at Pet Smart for $60 something. Anyway, after I applied the first tube back in March I noticed a lump on her back. I called the Vet and he said he didn't think it was the Advantage but a reaction to one of the two shots he gave her. He mixed them and also gave rabies shot with one. He said it should disappear and I think it did, I pray. We lost our little Dee Dee to cancer which started with a lump on her ear and spread very quickly.
