seeh2o Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 I just put Frontline Plus for 45 - 88lb dogs on Carl last weekend. The next day he head-bobbed while at my neighbor's house, he was also very subdued for a day or two. I only put one tube on every 3 months and don't use it in the winter. Every time I've used it on Carl he has had a bought of head-bobbing. We clean his ears and the bobbing stops. It is not a seizure, he can eat, walk, track while bobbing. It doesn't last very long, but I really believe it's related to the Frontline. I like Xan's idea, so I'm going to try plain Frontline, not Plus, and give a half dose next time.

Hubcitypam Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 I had a foster that was allergic to Frontline Plus but was fine with the regular -- it is hard to find tho. I think either JB or Jeffers has it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest charmsmom Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 I also use Sentinel instead of FP. Not only because of the level of toxin for the dog, but also because I have small children who pet my hounds and can pick up the toxin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozgirl2 Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 I used to give Cody 1/2 the dose AND spread that out between her shoulder blades & at the base of ther tail... But that was regular Frontline too Quote Jeannine with Merlin, the crazed tabby cat and his sister, Jasmine, the brat-cat With Angel Cody(Roving Gemini), and Weenie the tortie waiting at the Bridge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmswartzfager Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 I buy the Frontline TopSpot from entirelypets.com I switched to that from the Frontline Plus when we adopted Carrie four years ago, on Gil's recommendation. Have not seen a reaction from any of my seven, not even the "old farts."
