3months++...birthday 22.11.2013 (also unique haha ) from penang....welcome 2nd pg bridge
can share with me what to eat in order make his bone more strong, skin, and coat?
how to destroy the flea??? is it frontline good?

Haha ok ok. Just share what I know of k.

For bone - best is exercises , can bring him for short walks to strengthen his hips muscles . And no slippery floor . I think swimming is even better.

Skin & coat - can supplement him w coconut oil / fish oil.

Which dog food r u giving him? How do u find it on him?

For flea - I use bayticol however since yours is still very young, maybe frontline should be safer, however I don't think frontline is that effective to kill fleas. As I have tried on all my large breed dogs but it didn't seem to help much, only a little. But I heard some vets say bayticol is safe but I'm not sure myself how safe it is for small breeds or puppies. But it's really effective.

One thing you should note down is, after killing n removings all ticks n fleas get him a tick collar for prevention of ticks n fleas. Make sure to wash n clean ur surroundings with bayticol. I'm not sure if Clorox helps in killing ticks not but u can try using that to clean the surroundings where he stays or sleeps on if u do not have bayticol for the time being.

Hi, thanks for your info, its really help alot
btw, may I know does the flea & tick can hurt the people? this 2 days I found the black insect ( i suspect is tick) in my home ( about 4-5 ekor per day). do you have any idea to prevent it?

Tick can cause tick fever , but I rarely and can say that I never seen that happen in humans here but it could.

U can use something to press them dead or use a match stick n burn em off, this is a better decision. And clean ur home with Clorox perhaps if not bayticol. Cz they can stay alive for 6months if I'm not mistaken. So u need to make ate to get rid of em permanently before it reproduces more n more later on.

I got ticks bites too! And that's even scarier the ticks was on my bed sleeping with me and on my body biting me. Pretty scary though. And the marks are still on my body even after months.....

It is really scary, today I found more than 6-7 ticks (black color) in my house. but, I never let my puppy go inside my house.....how come this could happen?
I direct use lighter and get it burn.....
So, you mean use clorox to clean my house floor????

Tomorrow I must go buy frontline and apply on dog body...But, will dog get poison when the dog lick his body?

Isn't it the small ones which r red in colour? Do y know ticks can crawl? Ha ha ha, I saw one crawled up to the wall of my room and another big fat one crawled up to the ceiling in my toilet, I'm unable to kill that coz it has already crawled too high up.

Frontline is safe as far as I'm concern. So no problem even if the pup licks it but try not to allow him lick immediately after u spray. It should somehow but toxic but it should be the safest for pups.

Make sure u spray it on the scalp , not on the hair.

Yea u try with Clorox n see if it helps for your floor, if it doesn't then u gotta get some bayticol n spray at d corners or the place where u found the ticks.

Hi, really thanks for your info, appreciate it .....later will go to buy frontline.....so, I need to spray direct to his skin, not the coat right?
do you have any idea where can get the clorox? AEON got?

I ve read that applying lemon water on the body helps too.
Boil a pint of water and let it steep with a whole lemon sliced (*With the skin intact).

After 1 day, use it to rinse(*sponge) ur dog after a shampoo shower. It doesn't kill the fleas, but it makes the dog unpleasant for fleas. Maybe u can try it and see. Its harmless for the dog as long as it doesnt get into the eye and ear.

Btw, check out the online comparison of tick and fleas. You might be having a flea problem instead.

Clorox anywhere also can get ma. 99 market, any sundry shop aeon definitely has it.

Yes frontline on d skin surface .

How often do we need to bath dogs to avoid such problem? Or isit inevitable? Having ticks crawling up walls & into home is just grose.

Environment is an issue, so when bring your dog out for a walk, don't let it run amongst the tall grasses.
Also, if there are start dogs around your neighbourhood, then there are bound to be ticks. Don't let them hangout near your house.
