My vet does everything Dr Dog & Ezzy's vet does. Usually done the same time as vaccines, so he doesn't charge the office call or fecal flotation. He usually trims the nails if needed.

I like the way my vet explained it. "Look at your bull, then look at your steer. The bull is nothing but muscle, and the steer is just fat." I'm going to wait with my GSP male until he is at least two.

I think once the K-9 Advantix dries on the dog they should be ok around cats. If you are really fond of the cat use the Frontline. I know it works, I'm going to try the K-9 Advantix this season due to the dang skeeters.

You seem to be on the right road. I would also get a good quality flea collar. I use the Happy Jack Novation flea collar along with Frontline Plus or K9 Advantix. I also have mine on monthly heartworm meds.
