The puppy took a nap and when he awoke he couldn't even stand up. His back legs were paralyzed and he fell every time he stood up. His eyes appeared very strange also (they were half closed). His head was also shaking. We were all very scared and thought that we were losing our puppy. We were informed to bathe him in dawn dish liquid (blue type)...After 4 hours or so..the puppy was somewhat back to normal. We have since sent in the products, copy of the vet bill to Hartz with no response (it has been 3 weeks). Thank you for reading this.

My Vet said they'd never seen such a reaction before, seizures, lethargy and then a long, slow, horrible death within 24 hours after many emergency procedures. Another Vet told me this stuf is posisonous and shouldn;t have used it on her. They use a organic powder. Yes, she was 20 years old but was up and fine the day before. She was covered with fleas so I didn't know what else to do but give her the Frontline. Now, I'm so sad to hear this news and know i was right all along. I will warn others.

They also said there were deaths and major incidents reported for every dog product. The review also states that some products had a number of narrow dose ranges to cover the range of small dogs to heavy dogs, while other products had fewer and wider dose ranges. This would result in larger doses per pound for dogs at the bottom of each dose range, particularly so for dogs receiving product labeled for the smallest dogs. The smallest dose of Frontline is labeled for dogs up to 22 pounds, which means that a 10 pound dog would receive TWICE the dose per pound as a 20 pound dog.

We had a problem with Hartz a couple of years ago. Fortunately, it did not seriously injure our dog, but it made her sick and I made a mental note never to buy Hartz again. When I mentioned it to our usually circumspect vet, he was adamant about not using Hartz. We have since used Frontline, and had no problems. Still, I am now concerned - we have two toy poodles, about 10 pounds each. Have you all heard any problems with Frontline? I am so sorry that animals have been seriously injured and killed by these products. I'm just never bought Hartz again, but had no idea of the magnitude of the problems.
