Petco Seresto Large Dog For Sale (2024 Update)

For YEARS I recommended these to everyone and anyone within ear shot. We breed, raise, train poodles and Bernese mountain dogs. These dogs can be anywhere from 1000-5000 a piece however the pain my family is feeling from this completely avoidable losses no amount can fix. We have not lost just one family member but seven senselessly. It wasn’t till a vet tech advised me in line at our Petco not to buy this product that this was what was making dogs sick! Our puppies and adults all dogs all wore these and experienced vomiting, diarrhea, seizures, spontaneous abortions, chemical burns and the worst death. My family’s heart is broken, it was to the to the point that we were drowning our pets medical bills. Trying to save everyone one else who were originally misdiagnosed because this company FAILED to inform their customers! Shame on you Seresto!Brooke Dent

The pets in our house receive love in frequent Caresses', Brushings, Gardens for play and Special beds for sleep. Above ALL, they receive New Seresto Collars on Valentine's day each year ! Thus, they are protected throughout the year from those nasty ticks and fleas that would love to snuggle into their fur and pester the cats and dogs all season. Stopping our capture /neuter/release program of 35 years, didn't leave us free of cats. We three ranch wives found ourselves still with cats, after the "DUMPING" ceased. And, praying we outlive them ! We were fortunate in finding homes along the way, for kittens and adult cats that were eager to have forever homes. But, unfortunately, there are always the few that pass the "cute-adopt me" stage. Our ranch is currently "BLESSED" with 9, yes NINE varied aged, varied breed CATS – All of whom are loved dearly by all who share their lives. Along with 2 small dogs, expenses would be great if not for PET MEDS ! SERESTO cat & dog purchases are our most important ! With SORESTO, we have never had an infestation of fleas. With the collars they are free to roam our gardens and acreage in comfort. The collars are VERY IMPORTANT to us and the pets lives. We don't need to round up the population for monthly treatments- have no worry a treatment has worn or washed away. Collars can be removed and replaced for bathing and grooming. I sometimes wonder = JUST HOW DID WE MANAGED WITHOUT THEM ! ! ! ! Yes, the collars may seem a bit pricey, BUT WELL WORTH IT ! Lane Unser BBB Ranch Dripping Springs TXLANE

Oversight Subcommittee Report Reveals EPA Failed to Protect Pets, Owners From Dangerous Flea and Tick Collar
Jun 15, 2022 Press Release
Washington, D.C. (June 15, 2022)—Today, Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi, Chairman of the Subcommittee on Economic and Consumer Policy, released a staff report entitled “Seresto Flea and Tick Collars: Examining Why a Product Linked to More than 2,500 Pet Deaths Remains on the Market,” which details the findings of the Subcommittee’s 16-month investigation into the safety of the Seresto flea and tick collar. The report reveals that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under previous administrations was aware of the dangers of the Seresto collar as early as 2015 and failed to take action to protect pets and their owners. Scientific experts, a former EPA official, and pet owners will testify about the dangers of the Seresto collar and the findings of the Subcommittee’s report at a hearing this afternoon.

“It is unacceptable that the EPA has been aware of the Seresto collar’s safety concerns for years and has continued to allow Americans to unknowingly put their pets in danger by using a product they have been led to believe is safe,” said Chairman Krishnamoorthi. “While I am pleased by the EPA’s new commitment to revisit the incident data, I urge the agency to initiate formal Notice of Intent to Cancel proceedings to determine whether the Seresto collar should be removed from the market, including a comprehensive cost-benefit review of its serious risks. Following the Subcommittee’s disturbing findings, I believe the EPA must expand its data collection standards and more strictly follow its scientific review process to ensure that dangerous products are not permitted to stay on the market and threaten the welfare of pets that so many Americans view as family.”

The Seresto flea and tick collar received EPA approval in 2012 and was introduced to the market in 2013. Since then, Bayer—the original brand owner of the collar—and Elanco—which purchased the product in 2020, have sold more than 30 million collars. Pet owners embraced the convenience of the product, which provides 8 months of flea and tick protection for dogs and cats for under $70, and which is widely sold by pet specialty stores, online pet pharmacies, and large online retailers.

The Subcommittee launched its investigation into the collars in March 2021, following the publication of an investigative report which revealed that, as of June 2020, there had been more than 75,000 incidents and approximately 1,700 pet deaths linked to the Seresto collar. Since then, the reported numbers have increased to more than 98,000 incidents and 2,500 pet deaths.

The Subcommittee reviewed emails from the EPA, as well as documents from Bayer and Elanco, that showed the EPA was aware of these incident numbers and the dangers caused by the collar yet failed to act. Documents and communications obtained by the Subcommittee reveal:

EPA Rushed Seresto’s Approval Through a Flawed Scientific Review Process: An EPA Risk Manager wrote in 2016 that the agency “rushed” the Seresto collar’s registration so that the CDC could use the collars in a study. The California Department of Pesticide Regulation found that key studies that tested the Seresto collar on adult dogs and cats were not acceptable because the studies “greatly under-estimated the exposures” to one of the collar’s active ingredients.

We've used Seresto collars for over ten years with great results. Never once a single flea or tick and they do last eight months as advertised. These collars are worth their weight in gold and we wouldn't trust any other product. Tractor Supply makes ordering easy and quick and their prices are the best!mike44nh

The only flea and tick treatment I use! Works great! In the past I've used the drops of flea liquid between the shoulder blades but it never seemed to work. With Lyme disease from ticks being so common, I need to protect my dogs everyday from ticks.2Crazy Dog Lady

Seresto is for flea and tick protection. It works!! I have been using them for about 5 years or so now. Since my dog's groomer told me about it. I have not seen a flea or tick since. Since it is a collar there is less danger than drops between the shoulder blades. So easy to miss the exact location. Very highly recommend this product.Gabby15

This collar keeps the flees away. No need to spray your yard, perimeter spray around your house. And then if your cat or dog did get flees, there is the flee bath, setting off flee bombs, leaving the house for house and vacuuming like crazy when you get open and open the windows to air out the boom. Gone, all of this is gone with theses collars.tsshewell

I bought collars for 2 of my cats, Maggie and Cosmo, as they were being irritated by fleas. Maggie was particularly causing concern as she was getting scabs around her neck and tail end from flea allergy dermatitis. The collars worked *very* quickly, as within a few days I noticed that both cats were scratching less, and I didn't find any fleas when I ran a flea comb through their fur. Until then I'd been at my wit's end, using flea product after flea product on both the cats and my house, to try and get rid of these pesky, and very persistent, unwelcome house guests! A great result, and the collars definitely do work. However – there's one thing I think it's important to know if you're planning to use this collar on your own pet. The nature of the collar design (stepped/ridged on the inside) *can* cause some light abrasions in places around the neck, so for the first few weeks at least I'd recommend routinely checking all round your cat's neck (parting the fur if you can) to make sure there are no irritated areas of skin. After about 4 weeks of use Maggie had a tiny area on her neck that looked like a light graze, and a few slightly scabby-feeling patches of dry skin. I took the collar off for a few days to let her skin recover, then put the collar back on. I'll repeat the process if it happens again. In summary, these collars definitely do work, and I like that I don't have to worry about applying spot-on treatments (which the cats hate). However, I recommend putting the collar on as loosely as you can, so that it's not pressing on your animal's skin too much and potentially irritating it. I also recommend checking the skin every few days and briefly taking the collar off to let any grazed area heal. If you keep an eye on things your pet should be fine 🙂Christine H

I've used this collar in the past with no problems! I ordered this one, and out of the package it looked dried up,(I can tell the difference from buying in the past) like it had been hanging around for years! I nonetheless put it on my outdoor cat, and right away she had small tics all around her eyes! Every day the same thing! My cat was NOT happy about this daily routine, until I finally bought and am currently using Frontline with NO tics since!!!jillandjak

the best flea collar there is at a price that is amazing. have tried many others but none work as well or as long.it arrived on time in perfect new sealed can. just get this one your dog will thank youdafidd81

In our family, we have previously only used these for our dogs and they work amazingly well so we tried one for our cat and the results were better than we expected. Her whole attitude changed – she is more relaxed and playful. No more irritated scratching and licking. Within three days she was stretched out on the floor and comfortable. This is how it should be. With no lapse of time in between the monthly dosing as in regular topical flea medicines, the collar makes it easy to use, no mess, and more effective. I recommend Seresto collar to anyone who has pets, It is well worth the money. Ebay is the best price I have found for them.possumuhbilities

Look no further here's the BEST protection for your dogs, against bugs that can hurt us humans too. Been using this fab necklace for decades. Nothing comparable so don't think twice and you have one worry less!btlily

Works perfect We live in the Adirondacks, there were a lot of ticks this summer, our two dogs that love to play and run in the woods didn't have any ticks thanks to provectaSonja

i have a 3 month old and a two month old teddy bear…Bichons. They both weigh under 8 pounds. i went to pet smart and purchased 2 seresto flea and tick collars for small dogs, but on the front it says small dogs up to 18lbs. so my question is, could i use them on the puppies or return them and get for smaller dogs, or maybe cats. thanks for your time.Michael S.

Great flea and tick collar for cats. Collar is a cute light grey color and is much slimmer than other collars I have seen which is really nice since my cat was not a big fan of wearing a collar. The little can the collar comes in has easy to follow instructions as well as these wonderful reflective clips you can add to the collar to hold down the end part if it sticks out too much or if you want to see your sweet kitty goes outdoors and you want to be able to spot them at night (thinking of when they cross a street and a car is coming). The most important though is how really well this collar has worked to keep fleas and ticks off my cat. Within 24hrs my cat had serious relief from the critters that were bothering her and making her scratch herself. She was so bothered by fleas and/or ticks that she was loosing hair on her lower belly. Now she significantly has decreased her scratching. I haven't seen any fleas on her (and she goes on daily adventures outside). Her lost hair is now growing back as well. I am super happy I bought this collar. I had hesitated because it is pricey but oh is it worth it! I had tried the monthly liquid flea products you place in between the cat's shoulder blades and that was torture as my cat would absolutely hate it and it would cause her to scratch and lick the area I placed the product and she would also lose hair there too. But not with this collar. Not only does she not seemed bothered by it but it has had no negative side effects of hair shedding. The collar lasts 8 months so I don't have to remember to reapply flea treatment every month. I would definitely purchase this collar again and would highly recommend it to others.Isabelle75

* Still an early review Have two inside cats and fleas have been a problem for awhile now. I've been giving flea baths every two weeks and Advantage once a month along with vacuuming furniture. I keep seeing the scratching and nibbling so decided to give the collar a try. Within an hour fleas were falling off everywhere they'd sit. I have linoleum and hardwood so I could spot the fleas easily. What made me notice initially was one of the cats sat in my lap and I noticed 5 or 6 dying fleas on me. They don't scratch their faces anymore and sleeping seems to be better. This is only day 2 and I'll update a few months later but as of right now this collar will massacre any flea problem your cat has. Would recommend highly to anyone considering it.Fenrir

I was on frontline for years but when I thought I saw a couple fleas on my dogs in September 2020, I decided to make a switch to Advantage II for my cats and Advantix II for my dogs— BIGGEST mistake of my life (seriously, like over any horrible exes). I have $515.97 in receipts I submitted to the company (which was as horrible as the experience, which I will get to) and spent an additional $70 in store (in which I cannot find the receipt) since September 2020 to December. I followed every tip on the website and insert and my animals were still covered. I applied perfectly. I applied initially weekly, vacuum daily, steam cleaned, wash bedding constantly, etc. I don’t even have carpet but on the stairs and have treated the stairs and couches with Predcor. I even bought those flea traps with the sticky bottoms. I am not including any of this in that total I spent– that was all on the flea medications themselves for the 6 animals. I have saved some, not all, of the vials so on 11/13 I called Elanco. They denied my request for any type of refund. They questioned my exact dosage dates and frequency more than a doctor wants to know about your menstrual cycles but I took my best guesses, for all 6 animals although I did know what schedule they were on but didn't have it in front of me. Then they said that the product was probably not working because I bathed my dogs initially at the beginning 48 hours before application?? Their website TELLS you to bathe them before application (see 2nd screenshot posted)! I stopped bathing them after the 2nd application as it wasn't working and the dogs were miserable and only tried 2 cats (and really only 1 successfully because we all know how that goes). They then told me that I didn't give the product long enough?? Their website states (see 3rd screenshot) and is the same for Advantage II "K9 Advantix® II kills fleas within 12 hours. New fleas that jump on the dog from the surroundings, such as grass, carpet and pet bedding, are killed within 2 hours with protection against further infestation for at least 4 weeks." I tried their products, $600 worth on 6 animals, as scheduled, no missed doses for 4 months. I can’t blame it on just one animal or one batch—it didn’t work on 6, or one batch! I am very upset. Not only have I wasted money on these but I have bought corresponding products, sprays for the beddings, flea traps, etc. I FINALLY called Terminex and had to spend 12 hours clearing out under my beds, closets, getting everything off my floors, moving furniture etc. (time I will never get back) and getting my children and pets out of the house and went back to the brand that works: FRONTLINE! NO MORE FLEAS– what I should have done in the first place. I am so upset not by the fact that the product didn't work but by the way the company handled it, dodging any responsibility from blaming it on the baths they recommend to the length of time I gave it when they could have just refunded me and had someone that isn't going to not only post this review every place I bought it (not just here) but every other place that allows a review to include social media.Intelhottie

We bought Advantix liquid application anti-flea and tick treatment because it is effective, was less expensive and did not require a prescription. We had easily and successfully used liquid Advantix for years with our Plott hound mix. We now have a beagle. Beagle hair is different; it's thick, coarse, oily, kind of water proof and difficult to part in order to properly apply the liquid to the skin. Advantix is a very good product, but pet owners may want to assess their pet's coat to determine how the liquid application could be applied.Gary

My dog was getting ticks so I purchased this. I have used it in the past with great success when it had the Bayer logo on it . The one I received has the Elanco brand logo on it. I used 1 bottle and It was like I used nothing at all. Mind you I walk my dog and when he comes in the house I would find 2 or 3 live ticks walking on him. So I figured ok maybe it didnt work or I didnt wait long enough. After about 10 days of this I applied another bottle and again nothing. He still kept coming in the house with ticks every time. So I'm not sure exactly what's going on but the package I received appeared to be authentic. All serial numbers matched and packages were sealed well. Never had this happen before but definitely going back to Frontline Plus.kschoern

My vet recommended these to me three years ago when I noticed my adopted dog had cresks in her legs when she stood up. Her left leg goes pop from the hip a bit, but it is very slight. I've given her these just about every day for the past three years without incident. I no longer hear regular creeks and I attribute the maintenance to Glycoflex. My vet said that this was the only glucosamine product (except maybe Cosequin) that tests show has the actual amounts of the active ingredient in it. I give the Joint Treats to my puppy for support, but I don't think he needs them. I won't be switching to Joint Treats.2dogsandacat

Our 9mo old puppy was having her back knee caps pop out of place several times a day. Once she started taking the Glyco Flex 1 twice daily, her problems stopped. She has been taking them for about 6 months now and her problem completely stopped. Excellent product!!!Tracey K.

Not Only Do I Love HealthyPets.com for providing this product in such a good price, but I love this product because my 7 year old lab show\'s improvement on his walks & running and he LOVES he\'s treats. Thank you HealthyPets.com. We will forever be greatful.Blanche

The first week the collars seemed to work extremely well. We had a severe problem with the fleas and scratching with the dogs & cats. However, during the second week the occasional flea has appeared, given the collars are to last 8 months, I'm hesitant to believe they will continue to keep the fleas under control, but we will just have to wait and see.Debs

We are a small rescue and have a very limited budget. This package deal on 6 Seresto Collars is by far the best deal online. These collars provide 6 months of flea/tick preventative and are great for multiple dog households, rescues, etc.Shelleybean3

We had them last year (2016) for our dogs and they seemed to do ok. Still had an occasional tick. This year they do not seem to work at all. Pick 5-6 ticks off of the dogs daily. Most are fully engorged, so they are not working. They are not cheap either Will not be purchasing Seresto again..Knocker
