So sorry to hear about your dog. I have my 10 month old gsd on Trifexis. She is constantly itching. I thought it was food allergies, nope, changed her food a couple times and now we're on Simply Nourish. Still the itching. Thought it could be environmental but after reading about Trifexis I wonder if it could be from it. She also snaps at the air at times. Monday she will be due for her next dose. I am not going to give it to her to see if it helps with the itching. What do you use now for heartworm and flea preventative? Thank you.

Oh, Janice, I'm so glad you stopped the Trifexis and learned first hand its dangers. Obviously, that was more than your vet was willing to look at. I can only imagine how many dogs are sick but still no one's connecting the dots like you did.
The blood profile is so telling. Can you imagine Elanco, being so focused on making profits off their pesticide, that they've never tested before and after blood values, like you did?
Madness like this will only stop when people learn this stuff themselves, like you did. And, just like you did, then vote with their pocketbook: we're not buying this product any longer, and we're not taking our animals to the vet who refuses to look deeper.
Bravo.
