I used Valuheart for years but recently have had trouble getting it so I switched to Interceptor which does fleas as well.

I have never used the heartworm injections and for exactly the same reason stated by Schnauzer Max. I use monthly oral tablets such as Heartgard, Interceptor and Sentinel in the summer. My dogs don't have further annual vaccinations after they have had their first puppy shots and their adult booster. My Vet recommends dogs to have their vaccinations every 3 years but I don't do it. According to my Vey there hasn't been a Parvo case reported in our area for 20 years or so. Sorry to hear about Molly. I'm glad she is getting better.

If Telehealth is anything like Services NSW it won't work well.

@tdierikxIs it IWC ?

You need an efficient council to do this. And we don't have one. My whinge was in relation to preventing attacks i.e. enforcing dogs to be on leash.

@tdierikxi totally agree with you. The amount of dogs walking around in my area unleashed is off the scale. Even in the main shopping strip where there are heaps of council rangers constantly booking cars for parking fines. There is no enforcement at all for unleashed dogs around here. And the hoops one has to go thru with council if you make a complaint about a dog attack puts people off so many dog attacks go unreported.
