So happy to see your Teddy is feeling better. I give plain Interceptor to my Zhoie and haven't had any issues, just a little leery of giving the Plus and don't think I will be giving it to her.

Thank you!! I'm changing completely after what we went through. Never had any issues with my other dog on it. The more research I do though makes me want to cry

Poor little teddy has been through alot. Im so glad he is better. Yorkies are so fragile and I am so careful with my Jojo . I hope teddy stays healthy and strong.

Hi, ironically Interceptor is the best of the heartworm meds to give to dogs WITH chronic seizures- sorry he had such a bad reaction. My Yorkie who has had seizures since he was 4.5 was always on Interceptor with no problem. When Interceptor went off the market I started getting ivermectin compounded to his weight - a liquid. Just last year the price skyrocketed and we went back to Interceptor as it had returned to the market. My vet had just told me about Interceptor Plus and that they were going to carry that instead. I am not comfortable with that so she ordered me the regular formula instead and we will keep on using that one.

Never had an issue with it when I gave it to my other dogs...could be just a strange coincidence but I won't be taking any chances. I'm lucky so far that Teddy doesn't have seizures. Glad you guys are able to find something that works! ❤
