Flea & tick control for puppiesQ: What should i purchase for a growing puppy? he is 15 pounds and about 10 weeks old. i hate to purchase a 3 month supply of something he will outgrow before it is all used. A: You don't say how big he will be. if he's going to be under 50 pounds you could get the medium size of lets say frontline plus and when you put on the first one you don't apply the complete tube.

Help, what type of wormQ: Yesterday i noticed white, flat worms in my cats stool...i have not noticed them in the litter box before, but she had just gotten out and some feces was stuck to her fur. when i went to pick it up i noticed the white things. they seemed kinda big and long to me..i am very concerned..i gave her and my other kitten some capsules for ringworm in food yesterday that i had bought at a local store...please let me know if this is the right medication or should i get something else or take her to the vet..someone told me they could kill her and i am scared..thank you for your time A: Ringworm is a fungus infection that gets its name from the lesion it makes on the skin. what you saw was an intestinal worm. order homeo pet wormer and use it for 14 days on both cats.

Question about heartgard medicineQ: My dog weighs 16 lbs. can i buy a 45/50 lb box of heartgard and break the pill in half and thus have a years supply at the price of a 6 month supply? also... if my dog is on heartgard year round, do i have to have them re-examined every year? A: To ensure that the pet gets the full, required dose, it is recommended that you do not split the tablet in half. if your pet is on heartworm medication year round you may not need a heartworm test every year. it is up to your veterinarian but many veterinarians test every 2 years for pets on year round prevention.
