Just bought Adams Pentagon flea and tick spot on for dogs wondering if it was safe because she's 11 years old about 18 to 19 lb
It appears to be a canine product, although for a smaller weight catergory, so should be ok. Do not give it to cats however! I do prefer Advantix and prescription flea/tick products, however, due to the reactions seen with Adams and similar products.

my dog has fleas. one of your grooming options are for fleas. do i have to take him to a vet first or can i bring him in to be groomed and have the Skin itch solution applied to him during grooming to resolve his issues
Rather than using the grooming option for fleas, do the following: Unfortunately fleas only hop on the body of your pet when they want to feed, then they hop off again and stay in your pet's environment. So you need to treat all pets in the household as well as the environment (which contains the fleas, their eggs and larvae). Flea treatment: 1) Get some flea medication such as a Flea spray or a spot on from a pet shop or your veterinarian and apply monthly 2) get flea powder, put some in your vacuum cleaner bag and vacuum your house and furniture and also non-carpeted areas frequently to remove flea larvae and eggs which live off house dust., Dispose of the bag in the trash outside. Hot-wash all the pet's bedding, If you do this diligently for a few months you will get rid of the fleas. Flea products: Spot-ons and/or chews Advantage, Advantix Advantage Multi (Advocate in the UK) Frontline (ticks as well) Bravecto spot on (ticks as well) - for cats, in tablet form for dogs Simparica,

Hi I need to groom my dog and he hates it so much that he bites what can I give him to put him to sleep so I can just get on with it I need to do this every 3 months he can't go to groomer as he has bit most ofamous them
Thank you for using Boop by Petco! Unfortunately, I cannot prescribe any medications for Marley without having examined him myself. If he is extremely aggressive while being groomed, you may want to consider having him sedated and groomed at your vet's office. This will mean that Marley is closely monitored during the sedation and supported with fluids and heat if necessary. Your vet can also perform a thorough exam, and ensure that Marley's heart and lungs are healthy enough to handle the sedation. At home, you can try calming chews available in most pet stores, and consider getting Marley a muzzle to keep yourself safe.

Help grooming my new puppy! I bought multiple brushes : wire brush, steel comb, and a regular brush (similar to a human hairbrush). What are each of the brushes used for? Should I use them in a specific order? When grooming, he thinks the brush is a
First of all, Bentley is way too young for a bath (unless he has gotten into something nasty). It is a good idea to bathe him twice a year, just as the hair starts to clump. As for the equipment: I had a Samoyed for years, and also Siberians--another double-coated breed. Your best bet is to use a rake (made for dogs, not your lawn rake!). Aside from a general going-over to get the loose hair out, the best method for grooming Bentley is to pick up a section of hair., as if you were going to tease it. Do nothing with the section except hold it. Rake what's left underneath (the undercoat). If Bentley's hair is really clumping, you can grab a handful yourself. You might want to use the metal comb to get the hair around his face, but it's not really necessary--nor are all the other products you bought. You can train him to the rake by initially just showing it to him with a treat. Just run the rake gently over his coat and treat/praise when he leaves it alone.

I have a dog and she is at least 4-5 months old. I have given baths to when she gets fleas and she's used to that but recently I used Adams flea spray and she's been getting rash spots. What should I do? Is it because she's not used to it?
Hello and thank you for reaching out to Boop by Petco. It sounds like Fifi has had a bad reaction to the Adam's flea spray, so this should NOT be used again. The only topical flea and tick products that should be used on dogs (and cats) are those purchased from a veterinarian. Flea and tick products that are purchased from a pet or food store or online are not safe or effective for dogs, and can cause these painful skin reactions, or can even cause dogs to become systemically sick. I recommend contacting your local veterinarian about what flea and tick products they offer. Appropriate topical options include K9 advantage and Frontline. There are also oral options such as Bravecto and Nexgard, as well as a collar than can be worn (Seresto collar) for up to 8 months of flea and tick prevention! I hope this is helpful.
