Our Senior Technician is currently recommending Simperica. Dogs under 6 months of age get Nexgard.

He was doing well last evening and this morning when I went to work, so I would say much better. He was wanting to play fetch and tug-of-war last night a bit and his appetite is back to normal(meaning he eats everything within reach), so I think he is on track for a full recovery.

Thanks again to everyone for the well wishes and suggestions for tick treatments, I will be looking in to all of those and discussing the options with our vet next week during his follow-up appointment. With the current weather trends down here, she was looking to get him on his spring flea and tick meds soon anyway, so this is good timing.

Whip,
That's good news. Do you have any photos of your beagle?

I only have a couple on my work computer. My youngest daughter, who happens to be an old movie buff, is the one who chose his name, Brando. Yes, after Marlon. It fits him well mostly because he really does think he is a pretty boy and he eats like a big Italian as well. And on a really cool note, he and I share our birthday's! I turn 48 on June 10th and he turns 7, so I guess that means he will be older than me in "dog years".   |

Nice looking beagle. Looks like he might be a lap dog too. Is he in the 13"-15" size?

Good, he appears to be back to normal by all visible accounts. Eating, sleeping, playing, and pooping like he always has, so I guess we caught it early.
