Both my labrador retriever and my smooth-coated collie have used Revolution every month for well over a year. I have never seen a flea or a tick, and I am happy that I also don't have to worry about extra monthly heartworm medications as this is also covered. Revolution for Dogs is a great product, and I recommend it whole heartedly. Is this testimonial helpful?

I used Revolution on 4 dogs with severe Mange, which adopted me, one of them did not really have any hair left, was bloddy all over his body, crusty ears, just terrible. I gave him Revolution 2 weeks ago, and could not be more satisfied. He is doing so much better, all of them are. They are not suffering as they did before. How nice to have found such a great item.
