Why do you want to use a flea treatment? Does he have fleas?

I get advocate from the vet and drontal online which is certainly cheaper you can get the advocate online too with a perscription, not sure the cost of that though.

I get it all from the vets,Staffy's have a serious problem with getting fleas more than most dogs i'v heard off of quite alot of people now. And after what happened when Blondy was just born and i had that huge flea problem I am not risking it again. So its all upto date with me too.

No can of worms, I just don't like to put unnecessary chemicals on dogs, so I only de-flea if they actually have them.

Worming is different - I do that every 3 months because you can't see them, and you don't know they're there till the dog starts to lose condition.

we got our drontal from pet dispensary on line, we bought 3 and got 1 free. they were the cheapest i could find at the time

I saw this teenager the other week with a pit bull and gave me a tip form worms, get the dog to eat some tobacco and when he poos they some out, not as though I am gonna try it, i was speechless for once, he would not have it that the pills were a better idea

Surprised

Nice one I'll have a look at them sites.
I have got some at the mo but onto last lot on worming so will have to get some for next time. Last time I got it from the vets and they charge top wack for everything.
Couldn't let Blue have tobacco, if I have to quit I don't see why she should be allowed to carry on Laughing I know I've turned into one of them annoying ex smokers
