Regular Upkeep on Dogs?

Hello,

There is some very good advice in this section alone (flea control, shots, worming, basic fist aid, some not so basic first aid). The advise that has been offered is very sound, one of the guy's dad is a vet and his advise is always right on, IMO. I was raised on a ranch so I have done plenty of doctoring in my time. My dads best friend is a vet who I have learned a lot from over the years. The in town vet, small animal vet is my buddy also. With this being said the 2 vets have different opinions on a pups worming schedule. Remember if you choose to give your own 8/1 or 7/1 shots, get the shots from a local store that knows that the shots have to stay cold or they are useless. Rabies shots can not be purchased in Texas except by vets. The rabies shots are for my dogs protection first, period. The shots are the cheapest part of dog care and it will give you an excuse to meet the local vet. Good Luck....
