How to apply Advocate™ on your dog
1. Step
Remove the required tubes from the package. Hold the tube upright and away from you, and pull off the cap.
2. Step
Reverse the cap and push the cap back on the tube. Twist the cap to break the seal and then remove the cap from the tube.
3. Step
For dogs under 25kg, apply one tube between the shoulder blades. Part the hair until the skin is visible. Place the tip of the tube on the skin and squeeze the tube firmly twice to apply the solution directly on the skin.
4. Step
If your dog is larger than 25kg, apply one tube by dividing the dose between the shoulder blades, on the midline of the back between the hips, and at one point in between. For very large dogs over 40kg, apply 2 tubes of Advocate™. Part the hair until the skin is visible. Place the tip of the tube on the skin and squeeze the tube firmly twice to apply the solution directly on the skin.
Directions for use
For easy application, make sure your dog is standing before applying Advocate™. Remove your dog’s collar, and put it back on after the product is dry - except if your dog is wearing a Seresto™ collar. You don't need to remove it when applying Advocate™.
Avoid applying the treatment near the eyes or mouth area as this may cause irritation. Wash your dog before application and apply Advocate™ when your dog is completely dry.
Record the treatment date and repeat monthly or as directed.
Advocate™ flea and worm treatment for puppies and dogs is for external use only. Use on puppies and dogs from 7 weeks of age.
