[blparent] child safe option for dog flee preventative

[Erin Rumer]

Thankfully my dog does eat it if it's in his food but I have known dogs who
fish it out so their owners had to either wrap it up in a treat or pill
their dog old fashion style.

Hi,

Does your dog actually eat it?  Mine just used to pick it out of his food
and throw it on the floor lol

Hello list,



I just wanted to let those of you with guides or pets to know of a wonderful
non-topical option for a flee preventative so you don't have to worry about
you or your kids touching the topical chemicals of Frontline, Advantage or
similar meds.  When I was pregnant with my son I was really worried about
being around the topical meds on my dog so I enquired about this with my
vet.  There is a pill flee preventative that the dog guide school I go to
use to use in conjunction with the topical meds until they realized they
were just double dosing the dogs and took the pill form out since the
topical has a tick preventative agent in there as well.  Program is the pill
that I use and I simply throw it in my dogs food once a month along with his
heart guard.  It's a simple way to get that flee preventative in there
without having to worry about my son touching the oil spot on  my dog while
it's drying.  I love not having to worry about touching that spot for my
husband and I as well.  Now they just need to come out with a tick and flee
pill preventative and we'll be set.
