Angie Payne: This is what the tick and flea treatment Nexgard can do to your dog...

"CAUTION... Graphic, but sometimes better than a thousand words."

This is a short video of what Nexgard can do to your pup. My dog "Bandit" was in perfect health prior. We did not get the entire seizure recorded, this is just a last few minutes.
Standard duration was about 5-6 min.18 months of this!

"He was in perfect health prior." 



Sometimes we got lucky and there would be a couple of weeks between episodes, most of the time it was weekly or more 3-4days between and a few times multiple within 24 hours.
We spent thousands, tried holistic and naturpathic, CBD, herbal sprays, accu puncture as well as neurologist and regular vet with traditional meds.



Bandit had next to no quality of life left

In the end he was on 3 different meds with 16 pills daily and no improvement. The seizures re-wired his brain and he had next to no quality of life left so we helped him over the rainbow bridge.
This changes your life, you never know when or where it's going to happen, there are no precursors or warning signs. All you can do is try to prevent your dog from hurting itself and try to stay calm so you can calm your pet.





I want people to know the risks they are taking

The towel was there so we could contain or minimize the mess from involuntary urination and defecation. We now own a collection of what we call "seizure towels". Post seizure features temporary blindness (your dog may not recognize you), disorientation and exhaustion.

We know we did all we could and we know we made the right decision when we put him down. Hardest thing we ever did.

I just shared because I want people to know the risks they are taking by giving their pets these products.
