Thanks for all the suggestions everyone! I went out and got him some herring and sweet potato food instead of the lamb and rice, and the girl that helped me is actually a vet tech (or she's studying to be one… I can't remember). Either way, she had lots of good info for me too, so between all of these suggestions and hers, hopefully Rami will be feeling better soon! We've actually gotten quite a few barroos from him, and he's been much more playful the past couple of days, and he didn't do either of those even before all of this, so hopefully that means he's doing better!

I use Sentinel for Dallas' heartworm meds & I give it monthly. He has only had 2 months so far but I have never noticed anything funny after giving it to him. I just place it in with his evening kibble & he's been fine every time.

Sentinel is actually two medications in one. It has the active ingredient for Interceptor and the active ingredient for Program. It is supposed to protect against heartworms and fleas. If you are still having problems with fleas, I would seriously consider changing to Interceptor only so you are not giving your dog an medication that is not working and then look for a more effective flea control.

I didn't need to read that while having my first coffee of the morning…yuck! 😃 😃 😃

Thanks for all the help :o) I did notice that my B was even more itchy than usual the day his paw seemed to bother him more than normal, so maybe it is allergies. I gave him a benadryl, which seemed to help. Next time I take him in for a check up, I'll have to check with the vet…
