Please Listen

Do not give vaccinations and flea and tick meds at the same time. Nor do you give rabies at the same time as a 2 way or 3 way or 4 way. The rabies should be a stand alone.  If you have a little pup that just went home and are not taking them to the cottage etc they should not have flea and tick meds till they are of a size. By giving them at the same time with a low body weight you will flood them with toxicity and they may have tremors which is a result of too many toxins in the body. If you have any questions, please send me mail at darlah@potechin.com.

If you have any questions, ask vs relying on the internet.

I worry about the toxicity of the tick meds especially.

It is a concern and compound them with vaccines, It can bring too many toxins that the body is fighting at once. I do not give my dogs flea and tick meds. I have never had either but if I was going camping or to a show, I would use Nexgard apart from vaccines. It does work the same day but they all have side effects. Then when I returned, I would stop it. I am now concerned that some vets are suggesting dogs get it 12 months a year. It not only is an expensive venture but an unnecessary one. Puppies should not be getting flea and tick medicine and if it is a choice, they should be waiting till they are of size. See this article.
