HivesQ: This past holiday weekend my 9 month old chihuahua woke up with something that looked like hives on his head and muzzle. i was concerned and took him to an emergency vet service. they treated him with a shot of benedryl. they said they treat all hives this way no matter how they come about. i was told to keep on eye on him and if he developed breathing problems to let them know and bring him in. about three hours later the hives came back on his head and face, so they said i should give his 1/4 of benedryl(25mg) tablet that i already had for my own allergies. he seems to have lost his appetite. my question is how can these hives be prevented in the future? A: No sure way to prevent unless find out what he is reacting to allergically which is sometimes difficult. having good supply of benadryl on hand is best you can do
Heartgard plusQ: Hi, i just took my dogs to the vet for their annual checkup and shots. i usually get the heartgard plus for 12 months through the vet. eventhough i give the medicine religiously every month on the same day, my vet is requireing the heartworm blood test at $50.00 per dog. if i buy the heartgard plus from your pharmacy, will you also require, when you contact my vet, that the bloodtest be done before you prescribe the meds? also can i order two six month supplies for each of my dogs? thanks so much, jennie A: Heartworm products require a prescription from your vet. if the veterinarian you are using requires annual testing then you will have no choice. in answer to your second question, you can order a 12 pack for each of them. if you wish to save money, we can supply the iverhart plus that is the generic equivalent for the heartgard plus.

DosageQ: I have three cats, flea meds are expensive. is there any difference in dosage of medicines if i buy a six months supply of advantage, giving each cat 1 dose for two months, or is the first dose in this six month pack stronger or something? all three cats weigh about the same, so they'd use the same pill strength. thanks in advance. A: Each monthly dose of advantage contains the same amount of medication. in order for this product to be effective you need to follow the manufacturer's directions and use 1 tube on each cat once a month.

Dry skinQ: My little dog has very dry skin and scratches all of the time, i've tryed different shampoo's and moisturizing shampoo's and nothing seems to help him, what can i do ? A: For many years, pet owners have given fatty acids to their dogs and cats to change a dull, dry coat into a more glossy one. more recently veterinarians have found that fatty acids play important roles in other areas of skin and coat health such as allergies, the control of inflammation, and the function of other body organs in dogs and cats. |we have either 3v caps or dermcaps that supply these fatty acids. information can be found on our website.
