Among  other things.........I have two concerns:
A.  Anyone have any  experience with this to know if just 3 weeks of 
Doxycycline
is  ever enough???    He is on 500 mg. a  day.   Vet plans a 3 week 
treatment.
B.  Anyone  else have the Frontline Plus fail???





I, coming from AZ, have had a LOT of experience with Erlichia (Tick  Fever).  
NEVER has 3 weeks been enough.  The MINIMUM treatment period  is 3 MONTHS and 
then retest.  Unfortunately some dogs remain on Doxy for  life.
 
I have treated more than one elderly dog and have had them recover  fully.
 
I don't use Frontline as I have never had success with it.  I have  gotten 
countless dogs into grooming that were on Frontline and still had  ticks.
