Advocate For Dogs (Prescription Required)

Advocate for Dogs is an effective, broad-spectrum parasite treatment and prevention for dogs. It is administered as a spot-on to the back of the neck/between the shoulder blades and soaks into your dog's skin and hair follicles meaning that unlike tablet form treatment,  parasites do not have to bite to be killed by the treatment. Additionally, as your dog's fur sheds naturally around the house or they lay in spots that they will kill any lingering parasites and larvae that remain in soft furnishings.
