Hi there

When my two pups were younger I used the frontline combo as recommended by the vets.. that way they get the worm treatment at the same time. Think it was every 4 weeks until they were 6 months old.. we're now onto every 8 weeks but will only do that till winter sets in. I find with the cats I only usually have to do them (all 3) at the beginning of the summer then they are fine.

You're lucky you've found ST while yours are so young.. wish I'd found them sooner.. have had a few problems with mine.. toilet training was the worst until someone recommended crate training which I've found has been great. Their recall is not so good and have only tried that in the garden and house.. as you said in one of your posts they just want to play with each other! lol Lead walking they are getting better.. we've been trying the canny collar and that has helped loads.

I have every confidence that we'll get there eventually.. just time and patience required I'm sure lol
