Pet Medicine For Younger Dogs

---

     Pet medicine for younger dogs, those dogs between the ages of one and 7 years of age, are specially formulated for adult dogs. They are not meant for puppies or mature dogs, meaning the dogs over 7 years of age. Those dogs are considered to be mature or senior. A dog that is one year old has finished with his puppy shots and will only need medications if something is wrong with him or his monthly preventative pills.

Different breeds of canines under one year of age also may require a different strength of the same type of prescription or non-prescription pills. For example a Great Dane puppy would need a stronger dose of a dewormer than a Yorkshire terrier or any of the teacup size puppies. A difference in size means a difference in the proportion of medications.

Puppies that are still growing should not be given full strength flea and tick preventatives. These are strong drugs that contain a toxin which kills the pests when they bite into the animal. This means the animals skin is saturated with the flea and tick medication and when a puppy is little, it is too strong for their developing skin.

Cats will get worms just as dogs do, even if they are strictly an inside cats. Dogs can be a carrier for the worm or a cat could get into the garbage before it goes outside and eat uncooked meat which can give her worms. A dewormer medication will have her worm-free in less than an hour. Most of the dewormer medication needs to be repeated in about 3 weeks.

Some of the medications are better tasting to cats then they were a few short years ago. This is a plus when trying to give a cat her liquid out of a syringe. Still, an extra set of hands when attempting to medicate a cat is always a good idea. There are also pastes, which may be a little more expensive, but cats like them and this could be the way to go when having to medicate a cat.

One of the most common allergies in cats is Millenary Dermatitis. A cat could develop this skin irritation being allergic to flea bites or the fleas walking on their skin. It is important to seek a doctor's advice with this type of skin infection. The number one sign a cat has Millenary Dermatitis is she will loose her hair where she has fleas. For example if the majority of fleas are on her tummy, all her hair will fall our on her belly.

Dogs will sometimes come up with patches of dry, flaky skin. Sometimes they will loose their fur in spots and develop what's known as "hot spots" or sores. These are most likely yeast infections and antibiotics could help clear up this type of contamination. A dog's scratching will have to be controlled, which is not as easy as it sounds. There are specially designed collars, e-collars, to help keep a dog from scratching and biting at wounds.

Pet medicine for younger dogs could help them with a variety of ailments. Prescription medications can be obtained from the dog's veterinarian or through an animal online prescription drug company. A prescription or note from the vet will still be needed at most of the online drug companies. There are also many over-the-counter or OTC preventatives and drugs dogs can take.
