HAS ANYONE ELSE HEARD THAT THE 6MTH HEART WORM SHOT CAN BE DEADLY? I WAS GIVING IT TO MY DOGS FOR A FEW YEARS NOW WHEN A FRIEND OF MINES ST BERNARD DIED AND THEY CONCLUDED THAT WAS WHAT IT WAS FROM. I ASKED MY VET AND SHE SAID IT WAS TRUE BUT THAT IN HER EXPIERENCE IT ONLY HAPPEND IN SMALLER DOGS LIKE PUGS SHE SAID..JUST THOUGHT ID GIVE EVERYONE A HEADS UP. I HAVE STARTED GIVING MY DOGS THE MONTHLY CHEWY TABLET JUST TO BE SAFE
Yep, one of our own PT doggies had a horrible experience with it.
I have a few links to the six month heartworm shot. To me it sounds like bad news. :( Here's a few links......http://cbs4boston.com/reports/local_...061205218.html http://www.dogsadversereactions.com/.../memorial.html Anything that kills for six months sounds deadly in itself. Welcome to PT!
Whose PT dog had trouble with it? Holly had the shot last last year and now last month, with no problems. But I had not heard anything about this, and needless to say, it has me concerned. I just like the convenience of it, and not having to worry about remembering to give the chewable. Maybe the FDA will pull this off the market and it won't even be availabe next year.Quote:

Kia (ramanth's doggie) got really ill from it. If you do a search you can find all the threads about it.Quote:
