K9 Advantix Side Effects?

Today I used K9 Advantix topical flea prevention on my 40lb dog. After I put it on her, she began pacing around the house and has been completely uninterested in anybody all day, she just wants to curl up in any strange corner she can find. Why is she acting this way? Is she having an allergic reaction to this product? She acted a little strange last time but I didnt think anything of it, this time...i'm not so sure. Should I stop using this product? Any suggestions are appreciated, thanks.

Say goodbye to my dog?

Thank you so much for writing this article. My dog was diagnosed with cancer a few days ago. It is a large mass and inoperable, but I will try radiation. I am unsure if this will work so I'm coming to the realization that it will soon be time for her to pass on. I'm incredibly sad for my sweet, sweet dog but your article has really helped me feel a bit better about how to approach this. Thank you, thank you!

Beniful is a perfect example. The comercials tell you i... (continued)

Caring for your senior dog

I'd love to see an article like this focused on natural / homeopathic medicine. I have a 12 year old Chesapeake Bay Retriever and I almost lost him last year as a result of medications prescribed by several vets. When I stopped listening to these vets and began cooking human food for him, along with natural pain & preventative remedies, I literally saved his life. He looks better than ever and is healthy and hap... (continued)

Missing My Maggie Mae Rest Easy Baby I Love You

This morning I had to let my 13 year old boxer, Maggie Mae, go. She was old but such a loyal, sweet, loving dog. I miss her so much. I feel so bad - I nudged her to go down the stairs. She got the landing, layed down and starting panting for her breath. My daughter and I took her to the Vet Emergency where the doctor told us she had a heart condition and even if we took her to a cardiologiest she might last 6 m... (continued)

Dog Health

I have a healthy indoor cat. Just recently, I'd say in the past two weeks I have noticed he is licking his hind leg and right side of his torso, leaving him a bit bald. What home remedy can I use on him. I have used vitamin A, please advice is that was a good idea. Aslo he like water, so I bathed him with warm water, no shampoo. Your feedback is very important to me. Thank you Jeanette
