I always rotate the site just about an inch or so, so that I am not putting the medication directly on the very same spot each month.....like a clock, @ 12-3-6-9....dont know if that is even necessary, but it makes me feel better about it in my mind! |
I took Athena to her first vaccination today. We switched Zeus to Tri-heart plus which is a genaric form of heartgaurd. But for Athena he gave Revolution. He said we could switch her when she gets older if wanted. she is only 8 1/2 weeks old so I am a little Leary about putting it on her so soon. he said to wait a couple days since she just had her vaccinations.
How do you feel about putting it on a pup so young? she weighs 3.3 pounds.
