Since I have lots of dogs and fosters I use liquid Ivomec. It cost me $40 for a 3+yr supply for all mine and several other dogs. I do use Comfortis which I buy in the up to 20lb dose and divide in 4 for the little guys. I use canned food to put meds in so they eat it.

Both look at it and leave it alone so I was wondering if you can crush them up in canned dog food. There is heartworm in our county so I have to give the pills. I might go to sentinel Thanks for any help Randi
