Surprised HOW MUCH!!!!!

Post by Jenc Fri May 29 2015, 14:26

As I had time this morning I took Katy to the vets as I had run out of her flea/worming stuff. The receptionist managed to talk me into a different brand than normal as these covered her for lungworm & ticks which the other didn't. She hasn't been weighed since last july when she was 23.2kgs, popped her on the scales & she now weighs in at 25.1kgs (3.9 stone) Surprised My little bruiser Love Struck
I recovered from that only to be asked for £86 for her treatment Surprised Surprised Surprised on the plus side it will last her the summer season.
Good job I love my girl Love Struck

Hmm, has Katy been at the treats when you weren't looking Jen Laughing

These treatments are flippin expensive and Advocate will stain your leather sofa or take the print off your Hi-Vis deaf jacket too. Makes me wonder what it does to dogs raised eyebrows

Ooh the little porker lol Know is around 23KG bless him.

Have you asked your Vets if they do a healthy pet plan? I pay £10 a month for mine and I get all my wormers, vaccinations and Flea stuff included in that xx

No Rach she's definitely not over weight she is a big girl (18" to the shoulder & built like the proverbial brick out side toilet) solid muscle Love Struck I cant find an inch of fat on her must be all the exercise & tug o war games we do.
The vets certainly get their moneys worth out of us dog lovers Rolling Eyes She's worth every penny Love Struck

Wow Katy's bulking up! Big Grin
What worming/flea treatment have they put you on now?
Just been enquiring about it at our vets today and for our Program something all inclusive its about £50 odd for 6 months! They were telling us about a monthly plan with them too where all fleaing and worming is included along with a bunch of other stuff Smile

Hi Emma, its Milbemax that covers all worms including lungworm which the Advocate doesn't & Bravecto that covers fleas & ticks. Around this way there is a problem with ticks & I don't want Katy to have that problem. I'm lucky that she is just on the weight limit or it would of been 2 of Milbemax a month if she was any heavier Surprised Laughing
