A month ago I introduced you to the Seresto Flea and Tick collar that was available at Chewy.com, if you missed the post you can read it here.
So far the collar has been doing a great job and I really can’t say anything bad about it. Glory has been wearing it each day, I’ve only taken it off for a couple of baths. When I first put the collar on her she would scratch at it as I normally don’t keep collars on her. When she would scratch it sometimes she would pull out the end of the collar from the tab that was holding it in place. The collar was still attached in other tabs so it never came off I just needed to thread the end back into the tab. Guilty will play with Glory and she will grab the collar and pull on it and it doesn’t harm the collar or Guilty one bit.
This collar has been worn out in the field while hunting, since I have hunting dogs and they are out in the field a lot it would be a good place to try out this collar as ticks love trees and marshy area’s all the places my dogs go for retrieving birds. October is a prime time for ticks wanting to attach to animals as the air is getting cooler and frosty nights could happen so the ticks latch onto something warm so they can continue to live during the cold months. So far after a month of use Glory has not had any fleas or ticks on her.
The collar hasn’t even affected me in any way. Glory sleeps in the bed with us and most of the time she has to lay her head on my pillow and put her neck right in my face. I can’t smell the collar nor does it cause any problems being so close to my skin.
I give the Seresto collar 4 paws up. Once I posted up my first blog post on the collar I had my facebook friends that use the collar tell me how much they like the collar and haven’t had any problems with it either. One person even said her puppy chewed up and ate part of a collar and didn’t have any problems at all. Nice to know other peoples experience with it which all were good.
You can purchase this collar at Chewy.com for $54.99 which is on sale right now. The collar will last for 8 months or 5 months if used in water and when baths are given.
Glad it is working so well for you.
we had two too… and they also worked great … but the two muppets removed them from the neck of the other one and Phenny lost his collar… they are moneeh shredders… sigh…
That is awesome. We don’t use flea & tick collars but I used to put one on my first cat. Back in the late 70’s flea collars smelled horrible! I’m so glad they have been vastly improved since then. LOL!
Like Melissa, I remember the old smelly ones so I always stay away from flea collars! I’m so glad this has worked well for you. It seems to take a lot to repel those darn ticks!
