  1. please please please people... think twice before injecting any substance to your dog. my dog almost died as well from this Proheart Sr-12 injection. 3-4 days after the injection, it started to developed rashes, swollen eyes and fever. The rashes became darker and darker and bigger. The black patches varied from 0.5cm - 2.5cm in diameter. On Sunday, 1 April 2012, I had no choice but have to bring him to Sydney Uni Veterinarian Hospital Emergency Services because of the high fever and my dog was almost unconscious. They prescribed Dex (my dog) with 5 different kind of pills and creams. It cost me $360. Up until now the black patches (according to hospital, the black patches are due to the dying skin cells as the result of the injection) have not yet gone. He is still weak and itchy. Today I was doing my research about this injection and bumped into this forum. I want APVMA to ban this substance. Unfortunately, they can't do anything if no one is reporting to them. So I beg for you whose dogs had had bad reactions or almost died or died to report it to APVMA (Australian Pesticide and Veterinary Medicines Authority). According to their 2009 report, only one dog died from ProHeart SR-12. I really doubt that report because many people don't know where or how to report their incidents. If there are more and more people report, they will take more into the consideration to ban the substance. The direct link to report is : http://www.apvma.gov.au/use_safely/adverse/veterinary.php Please report your adverse effects to APVMA and who knows we might save many dogs' lives from death. Thank you
