Yup that's my dog 🐕 😂

I have the same issue, my dog won't let me she goes mental. And then once it's on, she just rubs it all off on the bed / sofa / carpet

@@melanoire I have to make out I'm giving her a fuss then put it on bit by bit then i take her for a long walk by the time we're back she's forgotten about it. You have to force her into a situation where she can't rub it off or a situation where she's more interested in what she's doing more than the urge to get it off.

@@visiblyshaken126 good idea! Thank you, will try that next month...

@@melanoire No worries 👍 I hope you're successful! I have a sprocker spaniel and she's a nutter so if i can get her to do it you can do anything 😁

it’s normal my dog did that too

Hi there, thanks for your comment. We are not medically trained on the social media lines, you would need to speak to a vet. We would advise you follow all manufacturing instructions with regards to medication. Thanks Nicky

Hi there, Genevieve! Most flea treatments are dosed according to your dog’s actual weight rather than breed or shape to make sure your pet gets the correct amount of the active ingredient (drug) needed to protect them from fleas. Dogs can come in many different shapes and their weight can vary a lot, even within a breed. We recommend speaking to your vets if you have questions about your dog’s flea treatment or if you’re unsure about the correct dose for them. They will be able to confirm that the treatment you’re giving is correct for their size, weight and lifestyle. 😊 Many thanks, PDSA 🐾

Hi Rob, You will need to ensure you check with your vet whether this is safe 😊

Hi Andrea, thanks for your message. I am sorry to hear this. We are not medically trained on the social media platforms, you would need to speak to a vet. Nicky

Get a chew tab like Simparica Trio from the vet. It covers heartworms, hookworms, fleas, ticks, and roundworms. :) They're flavored so your dog will probably just eat it but if not- put some xylitol free peanut butter on it and it'll eat it.

That is a great idea! next time i'm doing that

Seriously! Your way makes so much more sense. Going to do that rn.

Hi there, Aaliyah! As a general rule of thumb, when applying any spot-on treatment to your pet, it is best to wait at least 48 hours before bathing. In the case of flea and tick prevention, this allows the product to begin working effectively 😊🐾

Did it work

There are a lot of different spot-on flea treatments available, some of which are suitable for use on a pregnant dog. We advise reading the label carefully to ensure the product is safe to use during pregnancy and ask your vet if you are unsure 😊🐾

Hi Sharnice, each individual product will tell you how much to use on your pet depending on their size/weight 😊🐾

Hi there! The dog in the video looks like a black and white cocker spaniel 😊🐾

Hi there 😸 It is important to apply spot-on flea and tick treatments to an area of skin that pets can’t reach to lick it off, and where it won’t run into the eyes, ears or mouth, which can cause irritation. We recommend applying the treatment to the area of skin at the back of the neck by parting the fur and placing the contents directly to the skin, not the hair, so that they can be absorbed and the treatment can work 🐾

@@pdsa thanks

Hi Mary the treatments come in different dosages for the size of your pet so you would use the whole tube which would class as a single dose. Hope this helps 🐾

Hi there, thanks for your comment! 😊 No, flea treatment should only be applied to the back of the neck as explained in the video, if you were to apply it anywhere else on the body the chances are your pet would be able to reach it and lick it off which should be avoided! I hope this helps 🐾

@@pdsa so how will it remove the fleas from the other part which the solution hasn't put on?

​@@aswints4981the flea treatment works by going into the animals blood stream and when the fleas drink the blood they are supposed to die.

Hi Mangminthang, how your dog takes the flea treatment will depend entirely on what kind of flea treatment you have. Some are to be taken orally (swallowed), and others like the one in this video are to be applied. Please carefully read the instructions on your flea product to know how to properly apply/give it to your dog. 🐾

it is true that spot on treatment must go directly on the skin, however, it will always go on the surrounding fur as well. what goes on the fur will eventually be absorbed onto the skin. also, spot ons (with the exception of selamectin, that is also used to kill mites, heartworm and roundworm) do not go into the blood stream. they are distributed to the entire body by the skin's natural oils, and they go in the sebaceous glands (just beneath the skin). a very minimal (around less than 1%) amount of the spot on can in fact enter the bloodstream and be found in feces and pee, but that is a negligible amount.

Hi, please speak to your Vet Team about alternative options for your pet if they are averse to you applying a spot on. They may offer practical advice or suggest an alternative treatment type like an oral tablet 🐾
