I hadn’t heard about the flea injection problem. Really frustrating trying to figure out how to do the best for your kids and pets.

About the best thing you can do is find the best vet you can lay your hands on, and then trust him or her to keep up with the literature (and play the odds as best he or she can).

I drive all the way across town to get to my vet. We used to live much closer to her. She was highly recommended by my mentor in the cat show business - she also owns dogs and competes in agility and obedience trials, so she understands canine athletes well. She's been our vet for almost 30 years now -- since November of 1978.

She was the one who recommended I stop the feleuk vaccine when I quit showing cats back in the 90s . . . and ditto on stopping the flea injection a few years ago.
