Disclaimer: I love dogs and have had a few but have always had cats so my experience in mostly feline.

Our little $hitheads... I mean out adorable furbabies.
Gobbled up the pills no problem...
the first time... then started eating the food around the pills and walked away.

We tried the pills because the drops on the back of the neck freaks the cats out (for about a day and then they get over it).

Now back to doing the flea drops.

Never liked flea collars and used frontline for my dogs for years. 2 years ago my mother in law used frontline on her dog and the dog went into convolutions. Ended up in the vets office for 2 days. The dog had been using frontline since it was a puppy. Vet recommended a fles collar called Seresto. Been using it for about 3 years now. Yes this collar works. Works so good hunters hikers and anyone going into the woods cut the large collar in half and wrap it around there ankles. Keeps fleas ticks and mites away. No strange reactions from any of the dogs.
