Allergy & Hot Spot Treatments Click here for pricing and to Buy Now!
Dog Hot Spots, and Dog Allergy
Hot spots occur as single, intensely itchy lesions resulting from self-inflicted trauma to the skin.These lesions can appear within minutes and predominantly occur when allergic reactions within the skin cause a sensation of itchiness or pain. The dog attempts to alleviate the hot spot by licking, chewing, or scratching which leads to trauma and further inflammation to the skin. --- The most common causes for hot spot development in dogs are allergic conditions associated with: flea allergies, atopy, food allergy, parasites mange, anal gland problems, clipping and grooming which can cause localized inflammation of the skin, or skin infection. Yeast infections, drug reactions, and autoimmune disorders are less commonly the cause of hot spots. Regardless of the subsequent choices for topical and/or systemic treatment of the hot spot, all the fur covering and immediately surrounding the lesion must be clipped or shaved. In many cases, sedation or a topical anesthetic is required to perform this task because of the sensitivity and pain associated with the lesion. Once the hair is removed, the lesion is gently washed with an antimicrobial shampoo such as Universal Medicated Shampoo by Vet Solutions. Care should be taken to ensure that all residual soap is removed and the lesion should be gently patted dry. Many dogs need to wear a protective device, such as an Elizabethan collar, to prevent incessant chewing, licking or scratching that will produce further trauma to the hot spot and delay healing.
Dog Itching
Dogs that recover from hot spots frequently go on to develop recurring lesions related to the primary underlying cause i.e. allergy, parasites, etc.. Therefore, identification and elimination of the factors that contribute to hot spot formation are essential for controlling the development of these lesions. Let VetApprovedRx help you find the best solution to relieve your dog&rsquos hot spots and skin allergies.

Flea & Tick Control, Fleas and Ticks
Fleas and ticks are the most common external parasite on our pets and because of this it is very important to have flea and tick control for your pets.At VetApprovedRx we sell Advantage, Capstar, Comfortis, Frontline Plus, K9Advanitx, Preventic collars, Mycodex spray, flea and tick shampoos and environmental treatments for fleas and ticks.
---
Flea and ticks are often a problem that pet owners struggle with, it can be very frustrating and expensive to deal with a flea infestation. Prevention is always the cheaper more effective route to deal with fleas. In addition to financial expense and frustration Fleas and ticks cause many problems that affect our pets more directly. They can carry diseases that our pets can contract, such as skin irritation, flea allergy dermatitis, tapeworms, Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, and Erhlichiosis. By using appropriate flea and tick control we can avoid these problems and disease our pets can contract from these parasites.
Comfortis, Capstar, and Promeris
Most flea and tick control products are topical and applied to the dog or cat on the back between the shoulder blades. Capstar is an oral pill that is very effective at killing fleas on dogs and cats. It can be given daily and used in combination with Program and or Sentinel for heartworm and flea control. Capstar lasts for 24 hours and starts working within 30 minutes of administration. Comfortis is a newer oral once a month flea prevention. Comfortis is an excellent choice for dogs that have flea allergies because Comfortis paralyzes the flea's mouth so that it cannot bite the dog. Once the flea cannot bite the dog the flea allergy dermatitis will subside.
In cats fleas are one of the causes of tapeworms. As the cat grooms itself it ingests the flea and the flea carries an immature stage of the tapeworm and the cat now has tapeworms. Using a flea and tick control product will help reduce the possibility of our cats and dogs contracting tapeworms.
One important thing to remember in the treatment of a flea infestation is not only treating the pet, but all of the pets in the home as well as the environment both inside your home and out. Special areas of concern would be the pet's bedding or any area that is frequented by the pet. Fleas and their larva move out of the light and embed into shaded areas. So It is important to treat areas under cushions under couches, chairs or area that casts a shadow. VetApprovedRx offers environmental flea treatments such as Mycodex spray, Knockout Foggers and Knock ES to help our customers in their efforts to rid their homes of fleas.
Ticks can carry many very harmful diseases that need to be prevented. Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, and Erhlichiosis are tick borne diseases that cause severe illness in our dogs and require prolonged treatment with antibiotics and other medications. Often Lyme disease will be dormant and come back after a period of time and require re treatment. It is important to keep ticks off our pets at all costs to help prevent these diseases. VetApprovedRx carries the necessary flea and tick control, Advantage, Capstar, Comfortis, Frontline Plus, K9Advantix, Preventic collars, Mycodex spray, flea and tick shampoos and environmental treatments, for your pets to help eliminate these parasites and prevent the diseases mentioned previously.

Heart Worm Prevention Click here for pricing and to Buy Now!
Heartworms, Heartworm Preventative, and Heart Worms Medicine
As veterinarians we know the importance of preventing heartworms in dogs by using a monthly heartworm preventative.Heartworms are transmitted to your dog by a bite from a mosquito. The mosquito bites an infected dog with heartworms and ingests the larva or microfilaria.
---
Then the mosquito bites another dog that is not on heartworm medicine. The larva then migrates through the dog&rsquos tissue into the blood vessels and ends up in the right side of the heart. Heartworms can get very long often over 12 inches in length and will over time cause many serious medical conditions. The end result of heartworms in dogs is right sided heart failure and ultimately death. Unfortunately as veterinarians we see these dogs die of heartworm disease and know that this is a disease that can be prevented with a simple once a month heartworm preventative. This is the reason it is so important to have your pet on monthly heartworm medicine and to take your pet to your veterinarian at least annually, if not every 6 months for a good physical examinations and heartworm tests.
Heartworms in Dogs
Heartworm disease in dogs is preventable and there are many good heartworm preventatives available today. All Heartworm preventatives are by prescription and a current negative heartworm test is required by your Veterinarian to prescribe this medicine. Most heartworm preventatives are oral products that are given once a month by mouth and are chewable tablets. Most dogs receive these products as treats. Heartgard Plus, Interceptor, Iverhart Plus and Iverhart Max, Sentinel and Triheart are the most common oral heartworm preventatives. There are also several heartworm preventatives that are topical. Advantage Multi and Revolution are the topical heartworm preventatives available at VetApprovedRx. All of these products provide heartworm prevention when used once a month. The oral heartworm preventatives provide protection from heartworms but also from certain intestinal parasites. The topical heartworm preventatives will treat and control certain external and internal parasites as well as heartworms. Using these heartworm preventatives is a vital part of keeping your pet healthy and preventing heartworms in dogs by using a good quality heartworm medicine is essential to help prevent heartworms in your pet.
