Btw, I was talking about the Preventic collar made by virbac not the collar you mentioned. And yeah, they're not the most stylish but I'm ok with that. Have a great trip to FL.
Oh yeah I know the other meds are in the bloodstream 24/7 too, more worried about me touching the collar, etc, I dunno, I just don't like the idea plus like I said I don't like the way it looks, and yeah that's superficial but whatever... haha! I've def thought about using the collars. My main gripe with using the topicals is the nasty greasyness it makes on his hair and it usually stays that way for a few days, or until I can bathe him or wash the area after the 48 hours. Plus in the summer, it's nearly impossible to keep him out of the pool for that long to wait for the stuff to kick in. So nexgard appeals to me for that reason as well.

oh yes I saw someone else mentioned the Seresto collar, sorry!
