Heart Worm Preventative & other Chemicals
We think less is more when it comes to giving poodles chemicals including heartworm preventative. If you research about heartworms, it's actually very rare for a dog, especially a poodle with a thick, protective coat, to get bitten by a mosquito. Most people give heartworm medicine year round but unless you live somewhere like Florida, it's very rare to have mosquitoes during winter and early spring months. Testing and titering may be a safer alternative to giving monthly chemicals which affects poodle immune systems.
Here's an informative article by Dr. Jean Dodds: http://drjeandoddspethealthresource.tumblr.com/post/46289883129/dodds-heartworm-preventives
Here's an excerpt from that article:
"Some individual animals affected with autoimmune diseases and their immediate relatives have been shown to react adversely to commercial, monthly heartworm preventives. When an individual’s immune system is compromised, any regular exposure to particular kinds of drugs, chemicals or toxins can produce significant adverse effects, whereas these exposures are well-tolerated by animals by animals with healthy immune systems that do not carry the genetic susceptibility to these disorders. It is important to emphasize that the licensed drug or chemical is safe unless used in a genetically or physiologically susceptible companion animal. These adverse reactions usually occur within the first 10-14 days after the monthly product has been administered and typically begin after an animal has had 2-5 doses. Occasionally, animals that have been taking monthly preventives for a relatively long time will develop subsequent product intolerance. This usually indicates that some underlying disease process has emerged to explain the problem. Based on cumulative data, it is my recommendation that dogs affected with autoimmune diseases and their immediate relatives receive only plain daily heartworm preventive (Dimmitrol = diethylcarmbazine). If heartworm disease is not prevalent where the animals live, routine use of heartworm preventives is not recommended. This is especially important for dogs suffering from chronic diseases of the skin, hair and coat, or those with bone marrow, thyroid or liver disease. " Dr. Jean Dodd
