Thank you

If your interested I could bung a bit in the post for you.

Thanks for the info - I'll pass it on to other dog-owners I know too.Yes I do treat her for fleas, tics etc and all sorts of worms. Bravecto is what I use and the active ingredient is fluralaner which is not mentioned in the article you linked to. I suspect it's treatments that some dog owners...
