Hello all,
In a recent journal (Clinician's Brief) there is a paper on a labrador that had such a severe case of fleas, that the dog was anemic.
It is very easy to prevent this. We recommend here Frontline Plus for dogs and cats. It is very effective, and the company is currently running a promotion where if you buy a 6 month supply, you get a 7th dose free. That is the equivalent of a 15% off!
We can also send home 1 month at a time doses if that is more convenient for you.
Just give us a call at the clinic at 309- 699-6443. We can check and if your pet is not current on his or her health checkup we can catch that up as well.
This is one area where the ounce of prevention is much easier than a pound of cure. The dog in the article was hospitalized, needed a blood transfusion, and supplemental injectable iron until he was stable enough to take in nourishment himself.
It's your spin on the roulette wheel. ;-)
