| Pet Fair....... The ASPCA in my county is having their 2nd anual pet fair next month and I am soooooo excited. I was discussing this with someone at work and they said why would I want to take my babies there because other dogs have fleas...etc...etc. I really want to go but since she said that I'm thinking about it now My babies love to go out, be around other animals and people....they are socialized. They will be 7 & 6 months old when I take them. I don't know if I can use any preventatives like Frontline because they are too young...is this true? I also have their stroller and I can just put them in. They are taking Intercepter (heartworn med) which also protects against other worms. What should I do...I really want to go!!!! Oh, and....they are having a photo contest...should I go for it?!?!? It's only 3 bucks and it benefits the shelter. By the way I take food to the shelter every week for the animals and also what Mimi and Timmy don't like (picky eaters)...Having my babies made me realize how lucky we are to have eachother and other animals are not as fortunate. |

| The fair sounds like fun. They're not too young for Frontline - I think that our vet gave us our pups their first Frontline treatment during their initial visit at about 12 weeks old. They were definitely using it by the age that your pups will be. Have fun!

YT Addict | You can use frontline when your pup is 7 wks old. Just make sure you know the correct dosage. |

| I'd call the vet about the Frontline and go to the fair! It sounds fun, and it will benefit a great cause! |

| my vet had kizzy on k9 advantix at 12 weeks old for flea and ticks and i've yet to ever see one on her. so get some kind of flea medicine and go have a good time. you cant always keep your dogs away from thing to protect them from every little thing or soon you wouldnt even let them outside, but yu can get stuff to help protect them from most things. Have fun.
