Topic: My vet is rich!!!!

Manic I think getting your pet chipped is brilliant, we had Elsa done when she was a puppy. How about looking on Internet next time you need Frontline??

[manicscousers]

will do,lorna, I looked last night, do you need a prescription ?
some of the sites don't seem to ask for one ?

You don't need a prescription for Frontline Spot On, but you do for Frontline Spray and Frontline Combo.

Frontline Spot On can be sold by pharmacists and 'suitably qualified people' (generally places like saddlers, agricultural stores etc. where people have taken the relevant exams).

Hope that helps!

thanks, oakmore, welcome to the site
it's just ordinary frontline so, next time I need it, I'll get it on line ;D

Welcome oakmore2 ;D

Took Gypsy for a walk today and she seems to have sore paws. She doesnt want to walk and she is slow and uncomfortable.

If she is still the same it will be off to the vets again. She is due a booster in 3 weeks, so I may book her injection and that way I wont have to pay for a consultation.

The vet always does a thorough check at booster time. I think it is for 2 reasons.

1 To make sure the dog is treated for any problems.

2 To look for any excuse to give treatment or medication ::)

Ah well, I'll thumb a lift to the vets in a securicor truck. That way the fees will be well guarded till I hand them over ;D

Manic Just got home from my Wed evening visit to a friend. I use Frontline spot on and Oakmore is right you don't need a prescription.

Oh dear Caroline.Gypsy in the wars again, hope it is nothing serious. Elsa's Arthritis is much better, hardly any limping. I have cut her down to 1 tablet a day and may see how she is if I stop them.
