Hey! I just wanted to caution you with the garlic. Too much garlic (or onions) can cause some type of anemia in dogs. It can be pretty bad. I'm not sure how much is too much, but a vet student I used to know told me about this.

Just sharing the knowledge!  :)

Sam is a happy boy for sure!...But, unfortunatly, I think he'd be even happier without Pippin & Rosie!...We can't convince Sam he's a dog...He get so annoyed with those comman dogs we made him share his family & life with! :D

Hi there! My name is Melissa and I am new to the boards here, I have a 115 pound rottie named Zeus who is the biggest baby in the world! He thinks he is a small dog and tries to live like a small dog! he is a trip! Anywya, just wondering if any of you order your frontline stuff on line? Is it cheaper than the vet? I have 2 dogs and 2 cats, and it is a bit pricey. Thanks in advance for your responses!

One of the many joys of living in the desert....NO BUGS!!!

Although in the past we have used Revolution or HeartGuard before a trip to the mountains but after Tucker had his last seizure just days after a dose of Revolution I don't think we will use it again.

Many BPO members will probably frown on this, but I buy mine on EBAY and get the Australian FrontLine Plus 6 month for a grand total of $45 ($39+$6 S/H).  In my opinion it is no different than what the Vet sold me for $18 a vial..

Bottom Line.... My Wallet is happy and Dyson does not have Fleas..   :)
