We use the heartguard too, everytime they use a dose they always seem to want more.

Answer:
My Eskimo had his physical yesterday, just turned 2 - and he has to lose 4 lbs. 2 oz. Not pretty. We used the topical Heartworm/Flea treatment last year and of course had a heck of a time trying to find a pink spot of skin due to his double ruff of fur around his neck, but we persevered. This year vets have been advised that there are concerns that due to the type of fur my dog has - Husky breed as well - that the meds are not getting sufficiently into the skin - I had been concerned about this as well. Our previous pups were all short haired so totally different. So we now have chewable Sentinel. Plan B was to shave a spot every month and apply. Couldn't even imagine the itching as hair regrew. Apparently Heartworm outbreaks this year are bad in Tilsonburg and Caledon.

Answer:
I use the sentinal as well....

Answer:
I use Heartguard too.The dogs love it!

Answer:
I give Tucker, Sentinel there are some drugs out there that you can't give Border collies so I have to watch which one he gets.

Answer:
I'm another Heartguard user... my dog thinks it's the BEST TREAT EVER! little does he know it's a med... he literally does anything to get, he sees I have the chewy and auto sits/downs/paw/bow/speak.... he starts running through everything he knows just to get it.

Answer:
We just went to our vet and he gave us heartguard, we start it on May 1st and am hoping Dale takes it with no problem. From what I have heard most dogs do well with this kind
