Just physically looked at advocate flea and worm spot on today, when looking at what's in new local store.
Any feedback on this product.
It seems strange to spot on a wormer, I don't usually use a heart worm component and my research says it doesn't cover tapeworm.
Usually I use Ranvet all wormer and advantage flea treatment as my main go to products.
Just wondering also any other good alternatives.
Our supplies around here are not the best, on line doesn't help much that I can see. Or if you know of a shop front in Vic. that is good value please let me know.

Thank-you Gerry, all the way from Ireland "wow"
"May the sun shine warm on your face. and the rains fall softly on your fields".
(apparently this is a good Irish thing to say, sounds very nice anyway, had to send some special greeting to you - appreciate your reply).
I will give it a go with bells on, thanks heaps from Jeanette.

Treating your dog for tapeworm? Add Drontal every 3 months to keep them covered.

I think the above will cover the one that Advocate seems to be missing. I will double check that one.

Just trying to zone in, on any other questions I have in my head.
Just need now to ask the question re: heart worm re: stopping and starting the heart worm component.
I just remember something being said about once you start you can't stop. Can't remember if it come from a Vet or a manufacturer?
I'lle have to refresh that info. from a few sources.
And looking at new Aussie rules for next year and taking them into consideration, it does clearly say recommended opposed to must have, for heart worm prevention.
