				   |      We just got this from the vet. Last time they gave samples of Frontline and a separate heartworm. I didn't use the frontline though because it seemed too wide of a a weight range I was afraid to try it. The Revolution seems better formulated for little pups. For reference she is 3.7 lbs.     |

|    YT 2000 Club Member    |      I used revolution on my boys but they are a lot fatter than your little one.  Just be very careful with any of this stuff. I hate using anything because it is so toxic.  Do your research     |

				   |      I LOVE Revolution and have used it for years on all my dogs....it is weight specific and I like that....I have some really tiny babies that I do not sell because they are so tiny....I use Revolution on them and it is great....no adverse reactions. I like using one medication that will take care of heart worms, intestinal worms, ear mites, etc rather than having to use a variety of meds for all the different things that our babies come in contact with with! Revolution is very effective and all you have to do is be sure you get it directly onto the skin by separating the hair down to the babys skin.     |

				   |      A lot of people use it. I personally am not comfortable with a topical heart worm prevention I prefer heartguard but that's just my opinion.

				   |      My vet gave my girl revolution when when she was under 5 lbs since they had them for very small dogs. I actually like the idea of it including heartworm. More pricy than my other two dogs (which my dad gets them advantage). So yea, been using revolution for her :3

				   |      Our vet recommends Advantage multi.  Topical.  I put it on between his shoulder blades (liquid). He acts like it burns or hurts him. I told my vet of this reaction and she said there is nothing in it that should coz him to hurt.  I'm skeptical of the harshness of the chemicals. But I definitely want him protected. Is there a more natural option?     |

				   |      My Cali is 3.5 pounds, 6 years old and we have used it very successfully since she was 10 months old. We love it and have never had any problems

				   |      I've had Peanut on Revolution now for about 2 months. Everything is good so far. I wanted something that treated fleas, heart worm in one versus having to give him multiple treatments. I’m happy with it.

				   |      Bathe with the Dawn....and the protection he is getting from the Revolution will take care of any you miss....the Revolution does not repel fleas, it will kill them/neutralize them in a day or so, but it is not an immediate kill.     |

				   |      Talk with your vet about Capstar. I keep them around for those times we get exposed to some pups who have fleas or get a hotel room where another pup may have been. The Capstar deals with the fleas fairly quickly. We use Revolution monthly all year aroun around with great suscess!
