Question
I came home from work and my poodle wasnt acting the same. I did something really stupid two days ago. I was trying to make sure he didnt catch fleas and bring them into the house so i put a cat flea and tick treatment on him. Im not sure whether it was to strong and its causing him to have some bad reaction. He seems really weak and he wont stand or play as much. Im going to te vet on MONDAY but its Saturday what should I do?

Answer
Hello Cassandra,
Sorry I didn't get to you until now.  I would think that cat treatment wouldn't be as bad for your dog because the dose is usually lower for a cat than a dog.  
The treatment itself might have caused your dog to act that way though.  Maybe he wasn't used to it or something.  
I hope that your dog is ok, and if you have other questions please feel free to ask.  I usually check my questions everyday.
