My dog got sick
I gave this to my dog yesterday and she got sick! She was convulsing, scratching, wimpering. I had to take her to the ER and they gave her a shot for anti-flammatory and to calm her down. The ER doc says dogs get a reaction to this stuff ALOT and it acts like speed so [...]
Hartz flea drops gave my cat sores!
I’ve used the product on her before with no adverse reaction, but this time, she had a reaction. The vet gave her a steriod shot, but had no guesses as to what caused the reaction. She lost all of the hair on her belly, and it doesn’t seem to be growing back. She developed open oozing [...]

Profender Killed My Cat
Our vet, who used to give us a tablet to worm our cat, instead gave us a new product called Profender made by Bayer. It is applied topically on the shoulder blades like flea and tick medicines. Three days later she went into seizures and died of cardiac arrest at our vet’s office. He agrees [...]
BioSpot Dangers
My husband and I noticed one of our cats scratching, so we decided to order biospot since it was said to be the same as frontline. Well after we applied it to our 10 cats, I came home the next day to find our 5yro ragamuffin seizing on the bed. I rushed him to the [...]

The FDA
I once worked for a leading official in the FDA’s Center for Veterinary medicine. She said that pets are not their priority. Food animals are. That is why no action is taken against this horrid company. We should be lobbying the Government and filling the media with these stories. There is no one to advocate [...]

Balding
My cat, Mickey, started to get a bald spot on his back. The bald spot was also very red and looked painful. We didn’t know why so we took him to the vet. The vet warned us against ever using Hartz again. We immediately gave Mickey a bath, and, soon after, Mickey’s hair started to grow back. [...]

Boxer puppy hives
My 5 month old boxer woke up this morning covered in hives. I quickly did an online search to see if she could have some benedryl to calm the hives. I came across this site from a google search. Is it some strange co-incidence that yesterday I bathed her in Hartz flea and tick shampoo? [...]
