Autumn Wellness Check: Preparing Your Senior Dog for the Cooler Months
As the days get shorter and the temperature drops, autumn is the perfect time to check in on your senior dog's health and com…
Nexgard Spectra provides the most complete protection against fleas, ticks and intestinal worms for a full month, in one tasty beef-flavoured chew.
Control of parasites is a year round problem for all dogs. Treating for just external OR internal parasites only deals with half the problem. With Nexgard Spectra, your dog is protected both internally and externally, all in one delicious chew. Fleas are more than just a nuisance. You can see how distressing the itching can be, but fleas can also cause skin problems and even transmit disease. Fleas not only live on your dog, but in their environment too – their bedding, the carpet and more! If you want to get rid of fleas you need to kill the ones on your dog and those living in your home.
Fleas aren’t just a problem in summer – to stay flea-free, you need to use flea control all year round.
Nexgard Spectra kills fleas fast, within 6 to 12 hours all month long.
Rapid action and consistent treatment kills newly acquired fleas before they can lay eggs.
Frequency: Monthly treatment
NexGard Spectra provides broad-spectrum protection against fleas, ticks, mites, and some common intestinal worms. However, it does not protect against tapeworm. To ensure complete worm protection for your dog and to help safeguard your family, an all-wormer that includes tapeworm coverage should be given every three months to dogs over 6 months of age, in addition to NexGard Spectra.
For puppies under 6 months, worming should be carried out at 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks of age, then monthly until 6 months, and thereafter every three months or as directed by your veterinarian.
Two active ingredients -
Afoxolaner, for fast and convenient protection against fleas and ticks.
Milbemycin Oxime, for effective protection against roundworms, hook-worms and whipworms.
Nexgard Spectra is a soft beef-flavoured chew that is for oral consumption only. For ease of dosing, it can be given with or without food. Remove only one chew at a time from the foil-backed blister card. It is a highly palatable chew that is readily consumed by dogs when offered as a treat. Alternatively, it may be added to a small amount of dog food if desired, but unlike some treatments, Nexgard Spectra does not have to be given with food.
You can choose to give the chew to your dog any time that suits you, with or without food.
Dog gobbles it up and works well
No issues getting our dachshund to eat this pill. She would eat more than one if given the choice haha
I love how this is 1 product for fleas, worms & even ticks. Rufus loves the flavour and drools while waiting for me to open it & patiently learns how to leave it until I command him to take it. Perfect!
Definitely our go to! Our pup immediately reach for it whenever we open a new one
Super easy to use as my pup didnt fight me to take it. Would repurchase
