So here is the deal - these dogs are not cheap!!! But here is what I honestly spend my money on (and I know I have told you some of this before): Sentinnel, Flint River Ranch Dog Food and Juice Plus for Dogs vitamin/supplement.<BR>
<BR>
I adopted Charles 12 years ago, heartworm positive. Needless to say, after suffering thru the treatment with him, I will never miss a dose of Heartworm preventative. And living in Florida and having experienced fleas before, I treat year round for fleas. Result? NO FLEAS AND NO HEARTWORM DISEASE - no flea dermititis or skin problems as well - the good diet helps with that. I also have my house sprayed quarterly and my lawn sprayed bi-monthly - again becuz it is Florida - but rather treat than ever see a yucky roach or have fleas/ticks/ants in the yard.<BR>
<BR>
While it is not easy to shell out the bucks for Sentinnel, good quality food and supplements I swear is saves lots more bucks in vet bills. We have been blessed - but lost Winnie to lung cancer at 12.5 - have a 14 year old going strong with no health problems - two 8.5 year olds who look and act 5 and two buppies.....let's not talk about the buppies except that their health is great!<BR>
<BR>
Novaritis (who makes Sentinnel) has been running a special that my vet says goes thru March - $25 back if you purchase a 12 month supply PLUS a $10 check toward your next purchase. The $25 comes to you and the $10 is made out to the vet. I have staggered my purchases over the months for all 5 dogs and have gotten $125 in rebates and $50 toward their next prescriptions - not bad all in all.<BR>
<BR>
Contact me off DROOL if you want any more info - but I spend a bit of $$ on prevention and nutrition and spend far less at the vet and on meds.<BR>
<BR>
Thanks for all the BASSETku orders! There are about 40 DROOLERS who will soon be getting theirs in the mail! Still have about 25 books to sell for Basset Rescue! <BR><BR><BR>
