| Need advice on sentinel dosing! My Peanut is exactly 10 pounds. She has somewhat steadied out in her growth and has been 10 pounds now for about 2 months. Last time I was at the vet I purchased sentinel and they suggested I go to the 11-25 pound dosage since Peanut is right on the bubble of 2-10 pounds verses 11-25 pounds. What do you think? I am a little nervous to give her such a large dose.

| Hmm great question! I'm very curious to see everyone's opinion. I didn't notice the weight range and Meeko is a little over 10lbs now. I just assumed it was like Frontline Plus and was from 2-22lbs. Thanks for making me aware of this. I'm currently have flea problem and I think I'll go to the larger dosage. I have 3 of the 2-10 dosage, maybe I'll see if my vet will switch them for me?

Bella Boo & Diggy Too! Donating GS Member | Id give the 2-10 or call the vet they should tell you right over the phone what dose is proper. I was wondering about why 2-10 when both of mine are right around 5 so would i half it? These weight things get so confusing and dont make sense to me sometimes.

| I agree, it is all very confusing! The vet recommended I go to the higher dosage so I feel like if I call that's what they will again suggest. I just wanted your opinions so that I feel a little more confident about it. Maybe I will call another vet??
