    Great info! My late Border Collie (Coffey) who was 15 1/2 was diagnosed with Lyme disease when he was 7...he was on monthlymedication, but still got the disease😢. But, he was treated and I am thankful for the medication. He passed in 2020 and i was blessed to be his momma. His brother, Dodge is 3 and he is on Tick prevention medication. I cannot stress enough how important prevention and paying attention to your dog is. And this video was so needed. Thank y'all so much!!

    I'm certainly on the side of science, but pet owners should be aware of the FDA publication on neurological side effects of flea and tick medications.
    My wife and I only found out about this because our 6-month-old puppy began having cluster seizures in her sleep 10 days after her first dose of Simparico Trio. She had three or four episodes every night for almost a week before we realized she was having partial seizures, and not nightmares. Our vet was also not very helpful in helping us diagnose the episodes as seizures. It was only when we sought emergency veterinary medicine, that they recognized our puppies presentation as partial seizures.
    She's been on phenobarbital and Keppra now for the last 2 months and hasn't had a seizure since starting the medication.
    We're very nervous about putting her back on flea and tick medication. She hasn't had a dose since that first dose of simparica trio two months ago. We're planning on giving her a dose of topical Advantix II this week, and we're hoping she doesn't have an adverse reaction.
    Ticks and Lyme are certainly dangerous, but we had no idea how common neurological side effects from flea and tick meds were until we started having issues with our pup. Only then did we start hearing all the stories from friends and family who have had similar experiences. Then we discovered the Facebook page for it which is horrifying.
    We're still planning on putting her on flea and tick protection, but pattern owners should be aware of the neurological effects to look out for, so they're not blindsided by it like we were. Our poor Lily suffered for a full week before we realized what the heck was going on. Watching your puppy cry during a partial seizure, and then hearing her scream when you touch her because of her sensitivity to touch, is not an experience I would wish upon anyone.

    Good and timely info! There is such a growing backlash against drug companies and the hidden dangers of drugs. The tendency is to ascribe huge risk to relatively safe drugs while ascribing minimal risk to horrible diseases that are common. I struggle with all this too! The world is not a risk free place. The best we can do is manage the risk as best we can. We need good non-hysterical and unbiased information. It makes no sense to trade a .0001% drug risk for a .1% disease risk.

    My personal experience is that when I used flea and tick meds/poison on my dogs they started having seizures. What most people including g myself do t understand is that your dog can and will still pickup ticks, and then they drop off in your bed and rooms to then go somewhere else…. Like on you! When I brought this to my vets attention they confirmed it most likely was the poison that caused the seizures and this stuff does not stop ticks and fleas from being brought into your home. Like someone else said it’s better and safer to do a check.

    I do not play around with ticks. We go out hiking twice a day with my Jack Russel, Cashew, she is on Bravecto from March till late October or November, depending on how quickly the temperature cools down. I also check her fur after each walk, even the small ticks are easily noticable on her white fur. Still, I cannot risk her getting ill, so Bravecto it is 💪

    Very informative and I appreciate all discussions that allow me to make an informed decision. I want to use natural but I also appreciate science and ticks are just plain nasty. Not risking anything with my dogs. Now to keep learning and decide. Thank you.

    Shame someone thought it would be a good idea to add memes every 30 seconds....

  • @nothanks6784
    @nothanks6784 15 วันที่ผ่านมา

    No offense to the editor of this video but almost all of these memes feel very shoehorned in. They don't add to the content and it's just distracting and oit of place. Especially the one with a newscast over the seizure side effects, no information or humor is really added with that one. Maybe they fit better over training videos but with a vet talking about ticks, please leave them out. They're not offensive or anything, they just don't fit.

    I had a healthy 2 year old spaniel mix die of a grand mal seizure right in front of me the day after his first dose of bravecto. I don’t consider that safe.
    I now feed garlic to my dogs. I live on a S Texas ranch where ticks are prevalent. I haven’t had a tick on my dogs in over 8 years.
    I am disappointed to see you use your platform to push big pharma and discourage natural remedies. I have enjoyed your channel but will no longer follow your channel.

    • @tulipsontheorgan

      Agree 1,000%. Use real garlic not powder. And use by weight. Also coconut oil kills on contact. Baking soda in the house if you have infestation. Leave on floors, carpet, furniture,inside car for a few days. Vinegar spay every couple days discourages fleas and ticks from jumping on dog. F this toxic chemicals. Stay vigilant. Get a tick and flea comb and use after exposure. Great bonding time.

      Why do you feed your dog garlic? Garlic is known to be toxic to dogs. Could you explain your rationale. I am definitely interested in knowing. I don’t want to give my dog pharmaceuticals but my best buddy of 15 years almost died from Lyme. I live in Maine and the tick are absolutely crazy

    • @ovirago8314

      Actually that’s a widespread misconception that garlic is toxic to dogs. I believed that for a long time myself up until recently when I got a pup and went onto a deep dive learning about what is safe to feed her and isn’t. Garlic is safe for dogs, obviously you don’t want to feed them large amounts (as with anything else you give them). I give my pup raw garlic in her meals every so often and she likes it! Haven’t had any adverse reactions, and am doing it to also prevent ticks, fleas and mosquitos from biting her.

      Your account has no videos nor have you commented any other video on this channel here before. I think you're a troll and I much rather choose to trust in a vet with 30+ years of experience.
