GreytHoundPoet Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 (edited) The vet wants to put my 4 on Iverhart Max because Timmy has recurring tapeworms (despite bombing the house, treating the yard, checking him daily for fleas, and using frotline plus). Is it safe for greys? We have been using Interceptor. Thanks guys!

Hubcitypam Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 (edited) HMMMM. As far as I know Iverheart is generic Heartgard and doesn't kill tapes. ETA -- Looks like they just came out with a new "Max" version that does tapes too. Edited November 11, 2008 by Hubcitypam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked my ve about sighthounds and this med and she said she's heard of no problems but I was hoping for advice from grey owners too.

My group director told me no to heartguard and I never asked why...so it worried me a bit.

Hubcitypam Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Heartgard shouldn't be a problem either.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreytHoundPoet Posted November 11, 2008 Author Share Posted November 11, 2008 Heartgard shouldn't be a problem either.... Hmmm...I really should have asked her why.

Judy, Mom to Greyhounds Nadir & Beanie, and American Bulldog Bruiser. It's good to know a group uses them for fosters. It has been a recurring problem. He's now been to 2 diff vets...been treated 4 times.... It upsets me. I mean, he has no fleas...I check him over every night. Poor baby! Hoping this works.....*crosses fingers* Quote Masquerade Hounds & The Hounds of East Fairhaven & Ibizan Hound Club of the United States Member Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
