Flea and Tick Control for Dogs

[cottoncarpet]

Have owned my 18 kilo mixed breed dog  for 6  months.  Have been using NextGard pills for flea and tick control.  I notice it is more difficult to find this product recently.  It also seemed as if my dog was lethargic for a few days after the last dose.  Can you recommend an alternative pill?  (No flea collar, please)

I use Bravecto on my girls. Chewable and sized according to weight. Available at Friends of the Animals next to Ladron's Clinic in Riberas and other places. Bravecto is not for all dogs, please read about it online before you purchase. One chewable good for three months and it works for my girls. One Belgian Malinois 24 kg. and One German Shepherd 34 kg.

I use Advantage drops for the cat and dog much safer than pills, and they last a month or more...

I agree.

I used to use the drops on the parted hair but that requires another set of hands. Bravecto is not a pill. It is a tasty chewable that they think is a treat. Not only that but it works. Haven't seen or felt a tick or a flea in seven years.
