    My vet pushed a topical on my jack russell when she was a year old (over 23 yrs ago) and she began to immediately react to the meds. I rushed her into the bath and scrubbed that toxicity off her rinsing and washing several times until I could smell no residue on her. I have had over 16 rescues in 24 years and I stay far away from chemicals. It is a lot more effort but we take the time to treat our property and our animals without harsh pesticides. My dogs were and are fed raw and cooked foods everyday. My jack russell passed from natural causes at 20 and her siblings at 19. Please take care of your family members because the government is certainly not looking out for any of us. Thank you Dr. Jones for being such an honorable human being!

      @@dawnaustin4556 just as @womanoftheozarks mentioned. Dawn original or even Original Palmolive can be used along with diatomaceous earth in and around our home. We also used cedar oil by a Texas based company but they have since changed their formula and it is no longer effective. But if you have a bad infestation of ticks, I would suggest clearing any debris or wood piles or leaves around your property. We had a horrible infestation one year (we live in south Texas) and unfortunately we had to use a chemical (Cutter Spray) to knock them out the first round. One round of the nasty stuff is better in the long run as my small dog Sparky and I were bitten by a lone star tick(s) and I have issues relating to the bite, today. Sparky unfortunately did not make it. Get rid of those nasty critters before your family or pets can be affected. Once you throw a wrench into their life cycle, then follow up with dish soap, DM and make sure to keep the yard clear of leaves, wood piles etc. It does take some effort and the key is to be consistent but you can get rid of them as we did. All the best to you in keeping your family including furry ones safe!

      @@donnafernandez3712 Sure, but by no means am I a pet nutritionist but this has worked for my babies. I feed them chicken, beef, turkey, fish that we've caught, venison, nilgai, rabbit, (during hunting season) beef livers, chicken hearts and gizzards, steamed carrots, green beans, blueberries, pumpkin, etc. I will go organic with veggies. I supplement their food with freeze dried or air dried nutrition nuggets that contain vitamins and minerals. When processing wild game for them, I keep the bones and freeze them to have as treats and to help clean their teeth. I feed them safe herbs from my garden and make broths from bones too small to feed to the animals. I also give them goat's milk from our natural pet store. I don't normally wash store bought meats but I have on occasion if I feel they need to be and of course when processing wild game. I hope this helps a bit!

      Bayer will never suffer any consequences. They (allegedly) nearly killed one of my cats and made 4 of them sick, gave my friend lymphoma, lied to investigators, bribed officials... Seresto was safe like Zyklon and their funding of Josef Mengele... Oh, right this is an Elanco product now and I suppose Zykon B and Mengele were technically IG Farben, their parent company they couldn't be responsible for. RoundUp isn't their carcinogen soup, they just make it and Monsanto is entirely responsible or something. They (allegedly) lie, bribe, and ripped off Medicaid, Medicare, and DoD contracts (oh but they settled without admitting fault so can't we say they're at fault technically). They (allegedly) slaughter humans, animals, anything alive, and trample everyone on earth yet nothing *ever* happens. Hell that settlement was a mere $40m. Only a mil went to the gov (who they stole your tax money from). You think that even covered all that fraud and investigative expense? Eat ze bugs, own nothing, take your meds, and be at work tomorrow. 😷x2 The people doing science never get heard while the papermill charlatans shout over your dinner table about the safety and effectiveness and transparency of their BS. Our crazy grandparents were right, the criticisms of the Soviets were right (the subject matter experts on our faults, who we ignored for our own safety), Elon Musk is right and he could even be a bad guy by the look of things, Alex f-in Jones was right (?!), everyone was right - but it's just so uncomfortable to talk about, it doesn't sound very patriotic, and we're so *powerless* to do anything so let's trust the experts and put our "phones" in our pockets to spy on ourselves all day (for safety, scary ppl you know) while the unrelenting notification bar delivers your programming in a much more efficient way than idiot boxes ever did, and live our Dream. We have *real* problems to litigate, like Tide Pods. It's all for your own good you see, for safety. Trust - the one thing the government trains its own to never fall victim to but also the thing you're expected to give them implicitly, and to the EPA experts who declared Seresto was fine as long as some more fine print was added to the box for liability protection. Play the Shell Game! Guess which shell the pea is under, win a prize, step right up folks! This is semantic warfare with real casualties yet they're winning because we're weak, terrified, stupid peasants who will do nothing of real meaning to stop them. Maybe another lawsuit will fix it? Vote harder. At least you can always get an AI pet that will never die of alleged poisoning and it will forever watch you, to keep you safe of course.

      When my husband and I were first married we didn’t have much money. We got a Labrador mix dog, she wasn’t spayed and she had no vaccines. I never had to take her to the vet she lived to be 15 years old. She was very healthy her whole life until the last two weeks of her life. The next dog I had they said I had to get her spayed and have vaccines. I did the first round of vaccines and then she had a reaction to the rabies shot I thought she was going to die. She got cancer or year or two later. I would never do that again

    Seresto is still available in most stores. Just a few weeks ago my Cocker spaniel had a horrible rash under his chin, around his neck the flesh was eating away. Luckily I saw it early enough and noticed my dogs behavior was off the charts. Aggressive and moody.
    I was able to heal his skin with puree Aloe gel out of my yard and the coconut oil. Prior to this 8 gave him a good bath to get rid of the poison. In within a few days he was healed and acting perfect. I was so mad at the vet. She recommended it and I was not really sold on it.
    I just got him healed from an environmental allergy here in our yard thanks to your recommendations from prior videos. Thanks a million, Sir. We need truly doctors like you who are caring and loving . God bless you, Sir.❤😊

    I bought this collar few years ago for my 2 huskies because we spent a lot of time during the summer in the forest. Collar had great reviews so we decided to try it. I putted it on my pups in the morning. We went for a long walk and then they were sleeping in the camper while we went fishing. We cane back after couple of hours and noticed puke everywhere. Our older boy was squeezed behind the bed shaking and our younger girl was heavily breathing. These collars were the only new thing we introduced to both of them that morning so I took them off immediately. We took them outside. Our girl did not want to walk. She was just laying down on the grass. Our boy was walking in circles and falling because his back paws were giving up on him. He looked like partially paralyzed. We couldn’t touch his back legs or stomach because he was screaming like he was in pain. We were in the middle of nowhere. The closest vet was almost 2 hrs away. We were about to pack and hit the road when they both drank some water and finally settled and fell asleep. When they woke up they seemed fine. I started to look for information about these collars and I found horrible stories. People were saying that dogs were paralyzed or even dying. Lots of people said that their dogs started to have bad symptoms after week or two of wearing these collars and it was too late. We were lucky that our huskies had immediate reaction so we took it off right away. This product shouldn’t be approved use on animals. Even after dogs were paralyzed or dying they kept selling it which is disgusting! Since that day we only use natural remedies for ticks and fleas.

    I've warned so many people about these collars. I lost 2 pets and they were the only ones that were wearing those collars. My beautiful bengal cat got something they think was pemphigus and all of his beautiful hair fell out and he was covered in crusts and lost weight and died a sad death over the course of a few months. I'm convinced it was caused by these collars then i found FB groups with other owners that had lost their pets because of it. I wholeheartedly believe it was that 😢

    I almost got those collars for my cat to help with fleas since I thought at the time that the topicals I would put on her were not working and at the time that she had a horrible reaction to flea bites where she would get scabs everywhere on her body, especially around her neck and chin area (I know it should have been obvious that the topicals were the cause but I was naïve at the time). Found out now that we are in the beginning of fleas season that she hasn't gotten any severe scabbing since I stopped using the topicals. Never putting those chemicals on my animals again.

    My Vet pushed this and then Frontline when my sensitive Dog had reaction to the collar. On her first dose of Frontline she became wobbly, then her feet would just slide out from under her, then seizures, then vomiting. I took her to ER and the same Vet was there, after taking her out back and me hearing her yelp for over 8 minutes, he brought her back and said “you’ve been getting her too excited to see your Mom.” (?) I left, vowing to never mention Mom again. A month later I gave her next Frontline and same thing happened! I called immediately and got the Vet, he said: “oh then it may be the flea meds, the first time is a coincidence, the second time could be the meds”. I said to put her allergic reaction on her chart. Then I called right back and asked Receptionist if her reaction was on the chart (it wasn’t, he hadn’t put it on) and I asked her to do so, she went to Dr to get approval for the edit, got it, sent me confirmation “allergy to Frontline” was on there and I said “Great, thank you. Now could you please send her chart to my new Vet?”
    Unreal. Glad this collar is off market. Thanks Doc!!

    I make my own rosemary and olive oil combination to dab on the harnesses of my two Chihuahuas. Also lightly dabbing on them when they go out for walks. I use fresh home grown Rosemary blended with the purist cold press olive oil and strained into small jars. Dipping my fingers into the solution is my way of measuring and dispersing . The regular method of oral flea and tick meds give them seizures. This works for mosquitoes too. I originally experimented on myself for mosquitoes. Also combing them in a sink with *2* drops of Dawn in a couple of inches of water helps to illuminate fleas.

    This particular brand of collar contains some pretty high grade and nasty insecticides. A few years ago I bought a version of a flea/tick collar which had only essential oils infused such as lavender, citronella, peppermint, eucalyptus and clove - obviously a different brand. At the time we had 4 dogs and 2 cats. One quite elderly and fragile Chihuahua passed very suddenly just a few days after having hers put on. It has always been at the back of my mind that the collar ingredients may have helped her on her way - but she was 13-14 yrs of age and certainly lived at least 7 yrs beyond what a certain vet practice would have had in mind. The rest - an assortment of ages - were unaffected by the collars - so I take some assurance that it was just a coincidence and that it was her time to say goodbye. But I always steer clear of those highly damaging insecticidal treatments.

    • @charlottehall5191

    When using a flea comb be sure to have a bowl of soapy water ready to dip it in if you find any fleas.
    Find out why fleas are attracted to your pet. Is it because they're the only option available? Sometimes bugs are attracted to sick critters. Other times it might be a nutritional deficiency.
    For my dogs who are on a raw diet, raw garlic (small amount) seems to be helpful during height of flea season. Brewers yeast is also very helpful. There's a thought out there that a flea problem reveals your dog is low in B vitamins and Brewers yeast is high in B vitamins.
    Only Natural Pet has a medallion type thing that you just attach to the collar, that helps. Someone told me about raw amber being a flea/rick repellent, but we haven't tried it yet... If anyone has tried it please let me know how they liked it.
    Hope this is helpful to someone out there.

I also was giving raw garlic on a regular basis and decided to stop 2-3 months ago to give her a break from it. Man, that was a mistake bc we’re going through a situation now. I found a flea on her yesterday! She had some red spots on her body before that, but I couldn’t tell if it was pollen or from fleas. So I’ve been vacuuming every day and checking her body too. I can’t find fleas on her but she’s still red. Ugh. So, I don’t know if the pendant works 100%, I think it’s better if you have a combination of things.

    I am so sorry to hear of the dog deaths and illnesses contributed to the Seresto collar. My dog wore a Seresto collar several years from the time they went on market until he died in 2021. He never displayed discomfort or untoward signs for wearing that collar and it worked. I chose Seresto because a rather new flea/tick medicine he had received from the Vet and which I used for 2 to 3 monthly doses made him ill, with trembling. I called the company, not the vet, and was told to stop giving him that medication. Therefore, the Seresto. My dog lived with me for 11 years and developed diabetes in 2021.
