When it comes to taking care of your dog, your vet isn't the only one who can help to keep your pet healthy. As the owner, you have a responsibility to your dog to feed him well and take care of him when he's sick. If you can prevent him from getting sick, that's even better. Luckily, there are many medications that can be used to prevent some of the more common problems that are seen in dogs. Many dogs get fleas, which take their blood and can make them lethargic and miserable. They scratch, trying to get the fleas to stop making them itch, and the scratching can tear the skin, which can then become infected.

Dogs can also get intestinal worms and heartworm, both of which can be debilitating. With Sentinel for dogs, these kinds of problems can be prevented. As a preventative, Sentinel is given to dogs that aren't sick with problems like heartworm already, and can keep a dog from developing worms. Since the medication also repels fleas, your dog won't be scratching and itching - and you won't need to worry about fleas in your home. That's much healthier for both you and your pet. If you have other pets or children, it also helps to protect them from flea bites.

While Sentinel isn't the only medication out there for treatment of these kinds of problems, it's very convenient because it addresses so many potential issues. You won't have to buy several different medications for your pet, and you can only use one. It's faster and easier to do that, which is one of these reasons that Sentinel is so popular. It also works well, and generally doesn't cause a reaction or allergy in dogs that use it, making it easier for you to safely protect your furry friend.
