"It works!"2010-04-19 By E. Sentman (Los Angeles, CA USA) Not much to say about this product other than it kills fleas and that it works. Our cat had a flea problem that the cheaper products wouldn't take care of, but two weeks after the first application of Frontline all of his fleas disappeared. It doesn't work instantly so if you want to get rid of the little buggers quickly I would give your cat flea bath first and then apply Frontline after.
"Frontline"2009-04-09 By I have 2 cats and use Frontline on them most of the year. Using this product keeps them from being miserable with fleas, tics or whatever else is out in Missouri. I recommend this product for either house or outdoor cats.
"Important even for indoor cats"2008-04-11 By RSD48 (Richmond, VA) My vet recommended this when we got a dog. Our three cats are indoor animals, but her points were that #1 - any mosquito/flea/tick that makes it indoors is a potential carrier of several diseases (for humans too), and #2 - now that we have a dog, fleas or ticks can be brought inside. This med covers both.
"frontline works well"2008-03-03 By Averil Mclaughlin (Virginia) My cat is highly alergic to any fleas this product works better than any other she has used , and improved the quality of her health .
"Great for indoor and outdoor cats"2008-02-13 By Gregg Stephens (Bristol, PA) The best way to keep you cat from getting fleas and ticks, regardless of whether they are indoor or outdoor cats. Anyone or anything coming in and out of your home can bring these unwanted pests with them, so use this and keep them from staying.

"GOOD PRODUCT - GREAT PRICE"2010-05-15 By Conservative in NYC (Staten Island) I have been using program for my dogs for years. I shopped around and Amazon had the best price--with the sales tax is was at most even with the next competitor but Amazon is "customer service conscious" and had free shipping. It was a no-brainer. I buy the large dog size and cut them in 4 parts--which gives 4 doses per tablet if your dog is between 11 1/2 pounds and 22 1/2 pounds. This idea was recommended by my vet to help me to get the best value for my dollar. NOTE: PROGRAM DOES NOT KILL FLEAS--IT IS NOT INTENDED TO. IT IS LIKE A BIRTH-CONTROL PILL FOR FLEAS. YOUR DOG MAY be BITTEN BY FLEAS BUT THE FEMALES WILL NOT BE ABLE TO LAY EGGS. I use Program in conjunction with a flea and tick killer. I found the flea and tick killers that last "UP TO" 30 days--don't last 30 days but it would be risky to reapply pesticides before the recommended date. This is really important to me especially when the peak season hits and since fleas can live on other dogs and reproduce indoors all year long, I use Program all year long to give my dogs the best protection.
"Program Flavor Tabs"2009-10-29 By Donna J. Bristol (Penna.) When I received Program, it was so old, it didn't have any potency and didn't work at all. I followed all instructions and treated adult fleas with spot treatments. My dog continued to have fleas. How do I know that the Program I received was old? It had disintergrated to powder.
"Love This Product...for flea control only though"2009-10-29 By Chocolate Tummy (Seattle, WA) I love this product. It works GREAT with no nasty chemicals. Only draw back is it only works for fleas (as far as I know.) If ticks or mange is a problem in your area try Frontline Plus or Revolution. My daughter brought home a mangy mutt who was running the mean streets of Tacoma and now all my dogs are suffering. Frontline and Rev. will help control the mange, but not completely get rid of it. So we are using the latter products until that problem is controlled, but then we'll be back to The Program. Do love the prod cut!
"Great product for long-term flea control!"2009-09-14 By The woolgatherer (Pennsylvania, USA) I'm now a convert to Program and the overall approach of growth-regulation (as opposed to insecticide) meds when it comes to controlling fleas on our dogs and cats over the long haul. No matter how effective an insecticide product may be, unless it can do something to keep those thousands of flea larvae and pupae from growing into nasty egg-producing adult fleas, the flea population is always going to find a way to survive. By the way, of course you've got to treat the house with a growth regulator, too, but that's not hard to do, and it's a lot safer than bombing with an insecticide. We had a vicious infestation problem this past summer that a combination of Program, Capstar and Martin's I.G. Regulator solved.
"CHEAP ALTERNATIVE TO COMFORTIS"2009-08-16 By J. Daniel (North Central Florida) This is a great alternative to expensive flea protection for dogs. Half price of frontline or advantage and not messy, plus dogs love the taste of these pills unlike the huge COMFORTIS pills. Only one thing, Program does not cover or kill ticks....
If ticks are not a major concern, then definitely go with PROGRAM. The vets are just making so much money off products they sell, it's highway robbery.. They want to sell you the most expensive product they carry, so automatically will recommend (Whatever that may be at the time).

"No Fleas"2010-05-18 By C. Colridge (California) It's pretty simple really, I've used this product on my 3 year old German Shepherd since she was 6 months old and I've never found a flea on her.
"This is the ONLY flea treatment I will ever buy!"2010-05-10 By B. Nichols (VT, USA) I buy K9 Advantix over the other popular flea treatment brands because it is the only one that repels mosquitos and biting flies. My dogs have extremely short hair, and practically none on their bellies, so that it repels the insects really sold me on this product. It's easy to apply and lasts a month. My dogs have sensitive skin and this product has never given them any sort of reaction.
"Had to give up on Frontline"2010-05-03 By Janet Lynn Taft (Virginia,USA) I used to swear by Frontline until our groomer started finding fleas and tics on our Schnauzers. Frontline had always been such a lifesaver. I don't know whether they changed their formula or my three dogs suddenly developed a resistance to the product. I can remember life prior to Frontline, where the only alternative was flea/tic sprays and powders and I was afraid we were going to return to those days. That's when we decided to try Advantix. We have not had any problem yet. My vet said this is a banner year for tics but our pets seem to be protected so far, with no adverse reaction to the product. I actually had to purchase Advantix in 3 levels--for the different weights of our dogs--below 21 lbs, 21-55 lbs, and over 55 lbs (for a local stray who was dropped off in our neighborhood).
"Advantix for NEWFOUNDLAND"2010-04-02 By M. T. Millington (The Arsenal Of Democracy, MICHIGAN) This brand of flea drops works the BEST of any brand we've tried. One tube works well for our 160lb dog. We goto the lake and muddy swamps hunting and playing all year-round and have not had any problems with fleas or ticks. Our neighbors dogs have had fleas a few times, but our dog has not had any problems; even being just on the other side of the fence. GREAT PRODUCT!
"Fleas become immune"2009-12-30 By Quibie (Houston.TX) This works for a couple of months and then I have to switch to Frontline Plus.

"Overall pretty good"2010-05-17 By S. Smith (Boston, MA) I got this feeder so that my pet sitter would only have to stop by once a day while I was gone. Overall I am pretty satisfied with the product. The doors are a little flimsy, and the battery compartment does not have a cover, but the timer works fine. I have not had a problem with my cats breaking into it. I used the trick someone suggested (the 3M Command velcro type picture hangers) to secure it to the floor. I put about 5 of them on there to make it extra secure. The product does what it claims to do, for a pretty decent price. Overall, I would reccommend it to others.
"electronic pet feeder"2010-05-14 By Kinderhook (Albany, New York) excellent product, it really works. we bought one for each cat. only problem is that directions are written small and on inside of unit. they should include an instruction sheet separately. both cats are so smart that they sit in front of the feeders 5 minutes before the food appears. another feature is that we were able to leave the house for two days, not pay a cat sitter and didn't worry that they wouldn't eat. i would recommend this product.
"Solid performance"2010-05-08 By Paul Birger Bergquist (Norway) Had some initial issues as the instructions on the inside peeled off and got the tray stuck. Removed it and it has been working like a charm since. I'm using this invention to treat my cat to a meal of Sheeba per day when I am off working during the week (no worries, I have the Petporte chip reading cat flap to allow my cat going in and out of its sanctuary as it pleases :) ). However, I am hoping PetSafe will announce a model with a better cooling solution or some system to preserve the food longer. As it is, with a standard cooling element you put in the freezer being inserted in a designated spot, my cat will only accept the food the first three days. Then she will keep to the dry food for the rest of the week.
"my mom may dress me funny.... but I EAT LIKE A QUEEN!!!"2010-04-29 By D. Hoskins (soca usa) I don't do reviews much.... but when I find an exceptional product, I just might go there.
When spending good hard-earned $$ on things -- and expecting perfection from my expectations and/or needs.... I might be considered a bit finicky. Knowledge that I can't be alone in 'expectations' from a product', I'm happy to offer the occassional 'beyond-satisfaction' review. And when it comes to one's pet -- others in need of a similar item should hear from those of us HAPPY BEYOND EXPECTION.
My kitty is 14, almost 15. She swallowed magnets as a kitten (NEVER put pics on fridges folks!!!!! The humidity curls the edges and kittens find them fair game for play. DO NOT learn the hard way as I did... in fact, tell your friends the same.)
Due to the above nightmare, she can only eat approx 10-20 kibbles @ a time; any more and she'll get sick within 5 minutes. AND, she's constantly hungry.... to the point of begging (I can't blame her, I'd be hungry too esp if my intestines were ruined for life). So, for the last 14 years, I've fed her small amts of kibble every 20-30 minutes -- both before leaving for work and after arriving home in the evenings.
Why it took me so long to get an automatic feeder?
I didn't like what was out there -- too little feedings while I was gone // the top cover of the feeder moved rather than the bowl bottom (the pet had to make their way around the feeder rather than eat from the same direction) // the feeders were too easy to defeat and get to food stored for the next feeding (somewhat defeating the entire purpose) // and cost (although that never did nor will make a difference) --- but 2-3 feedings while I was gone and the 'too easy access to the rest of the day's feedings' didn't quite cut it for the $80+ pricetag of not-too-long-ago auto feeders. HAPPILY, automatic feeders have NOW found their evolutionary path!!!
My decision was based upon the 'wildvet05' review found here. I had 2 feeders picked out... this one and another brand. Wildvet05 (and a few other reviewers) convinced me to purchase this one.
There's 5 feedings; although 1 of these 5 feedings don't count in my world... I (and most likely you) can only use 4 of these feedings. Basically, the 5th is gobbled up as soon as it is placed into feeder bowl. So I've now got feedings @ 12 noon, 2pm, 4pm, and 6pm. I still use Sage's regular food plate for pre & post work feeding --- but I happily now live peacefully at work knowing that she's got 4 feedings while I'm gone during the day (and that she cannot get into the later feedings). I cannot begin to express my contentness AND my happiness in knowing that she's being well fed while I'm gone.
Her behavior when I come home from work is so much more subdued now VS 'pre' the automatic feeder. Sure, she's hungry -- but she doesn't act as though I've starved her for the last 2 days. She is happy; I am BEYOND HAPPY!!
And -- due to her age, and being the runt of her litter.... at almost 15, I've now started adding Tomlyn's Nutri-Cal for cats in 'every other feeding bowl' in addition to her Science Diet Sensitive Stomach kibble. She's only a wee 5.5 lbs --and although a senior, the Nutri-Cal is waaaay better than any 'senior supplement' ---- it helps to beef her up as opposed to the 'senior stuff' that otherwise trys to slim down older cats (my need, maybe not yours). And.... not only does it help to put on a bit of weight --- she AB LOVES the stuff!!!! It fills her up just as though I'd have given her a full bowl of 15 kibbles. She walks away content. It's basically as though the malty Nutri-Cal paste is a whole meal in and of itself (it can be given as a meal substitute for pets who cannot take food.... basically a meal supplement of sorts). I've given her enough of this Nutri-Cal where I actually believe that it also 'calms her tummy' after (or in-between) her kibble meals -- something that I never experienced with her before. I can actually feed her more often and not worry about her getting sick. It truly seems as though Sage is getting SO MUCH MORE from her feedings since I started with both the Nutri-Cal and this automatic feeder.
So.... while exiting here with a babbling beginning, I end with --- this feeder IS BEYOND THE BEE'S KNEES!!!!! This feeder combined with both kibble and Nutri-Cal goes WAY BEYOND MY EXPECTATIONS..... all while I'm gone and unavailable to feed my little girl who I love so much.
Should you ever need a feeder for those times you're not at home..... THIS IS THE BEST FEEDER you will find: 1) for your $$.... 2) for your contentment knowing that your pet is happily eating while you're unavailable to be there.... and, 3) knowing that they can't sneak the next feeding.
Just remember that this is really a 4 meal feeder while gone.... not a 5 meal feeder. Should my description not make sense.... you'll realize just what I mean once you own it. That is not to say that this feeder ain't FAB.... for IT IS!
IT WILL most likely be the first & last feeder you'll ever need (unless of course you'll need 2 or more of them ;)
***** This puppy rates 10 STARS in my world *****
PS: teaching your pet the sound of the advancing bowls... totally unnecessary IMHO. Sage wanders into the kitchen enough to hopefully find food, and I have yet to find uneaten food. Sure, at first I'd come home to maybe 1 or 2 of the bowls uneaten.... but that hasn't happened since the third day. She's keyed into the process, although she still doesn't realize the sound of the 'bowl advancement'. Perhaps beause there's enough other sounds going on at home. I really don't think that you'll have to worry about 'training' your pet to the sound.... but then again - just MHO :)
"automatic feeder"2010-04-29 By name goes here Overall I have been very happy with this product. I have been using it for over a month now to provide my cat with multiple meals throughout the day. The sound the machine makes when rotating the new food into position startled my cat at first, but she quickly learned that it means meal time. She now goes running to the machine whenever she hears it.
What I like most about this feeder is that it allows you to set the exact time(s) at which you would like your pet to be fed. It is easy to program the feeding times and the instructions are right on the machine in case you forget. The device also seems to be quite sturdy, at least against prying by a cat. It is made of heavy plastic and while my cat has made many attempts, she cannot pry it open. I would be less confident that a dog would not be able to open it.
I do wish that the mechanical aspects of the machine were more user friendly. It is difficult to get the feeding tray aligned perfectly, which is necessary to ensure that the whole feeding compartment will be exposed when the tray rotates. It was also quite difficult to get the batteries into the machine. Luckily, they do not seem to need to be changed often.
I should also note that while the machine says it feed 5 meals, meal 1 will be available to your pet right away, so it really only feeds 4 meals at the times you enter in.
"Love It Love It"2010-05-18 By Sundancr12 (Red Bank, new jersey, US) Love this product. Have a few cats, this is easy to clean, easy to refill, and even easy to fill to begin with. I put some ice in it, lasts a few days, then refill and ice again. Has made my life easier with the kitties.
"Great"2010-04-28 By lsr We have a small dog so this is perfect for her. Like other reviewers have said you have to move quickly to put the water container on, but other than that it is great.
"Ungourmet Cat Waterer"2010-04-22 By Alice L. Abel (NYC) I'm disappointed with this cat waterer. I don't know what constitutes it being called "Gourmet". It's looks nice but it's very hard to pick up if you need to pour some of the water out to freshen it, due to the bowl being a very flexible plastic/rubber--being hollow underneath instead of solid. I would never have purchased it had i known this.
"Leaking Lid"2010-04-21 By ElRoseO (Titusville FL) The lid leaks when inverted into the holder. My son advised me that it needs an O-ring to prevent the leaking. Being handicapped, boxing it up and getting to the post office to mail it back is a major hassle for me so I have to pay someone to do it for me (my son works during post office hours). By the time I go through all of that, I have spent more money than I paid for it originally. I would not recommend this product to anyone!!!!
"Good, but not the best."2010-03-28 By Joshua D. (Michigan, USA) No complaints for the price I paid for this. However, I would have paid a little extra if this thing came with some sort of screen over the water outlet. Cat hair and food tends to back up into the reservoir somehow, making me have to clean the whole thing very often. Of course, you should clean your pets' water dish regularly, so it's a minor inconvenience.
The Drinkwell® Big-Dog Fountain was designed by a veterinarian specifically for large dogs. The Drinkwell® Big-Dog holds well over two gallons of water, making it the largest capacity pet fountain on the market (288 oz.)! Ideal for large dogs and multiple-pet homes, the Big Dog uses the same innovative watering system as the Original Pet Fountain, featuring the patented free-falling stream of water that consumers have come to rely on for cats and small dogs for the past decade. A large charcoal filter removes bad tastes and odors leaving your pet with fresh-tasting, filtered water. The Drinkwell® Big-Dog is the best and most convenient way to provide man's best friend with fresh filtered water for days at a time.

"Good Product but has some flaws"2010-05-01 By Alex Thomas I bought this fountain last summer and it worked very well. The filter that arrived with the fountain lasted 4 weeks and worked wonderfully. When I replaced the filter, I noticed that there was black residue at the bottom of the reservoir. The new filter was bleeding into the water. So I called the company and the young lady who answered was very nice and recommended I rinse the filter in cold water before using it (she also sent me a pack of replacement filters gratis, she didn't have to do this). I replaced the water and tried another filter after rinsing it and again it bled into the water. I then used the fountain without a filter and it worked fine this way for a while but I noticed the mildew occurred a lot faster than with the filter.
Also, After several months of use the motor began to stick and was very difficult to remove during disassembly. Basically, I have mixed feelings about this fountain. It works well, but that filter has some issues. I've stopped using the fountain for everyday, its just too much trouble.
"Not quite sure what the hypes about..."2010-04-30 By Raemey I have a medium sized Labrador, a large Doberman, and several cats. With two other smaller waterers in my home I am still finding I have to fill this unit up about every 14-18 hours which is not what I anticipated from reading the reviews. I have also found it to be the noisiest of all the waterers I have tried so far. I was hoping to find additional reservoirs with lids that could be filled and stored in the refrigerator and changed as needed but I don't think Drinkwell makes reservoirs that can be stored.
"great product"2010-04-21 By anonymous (Colorado) I have a cat that loves to drink from the sink. I was hoping that the fountain would keep the cat out of the sink and it helps but not totally. It took about one day for the dog to get used to the fountain. Overall I love it because I no longer have to worry about a dry water bowl. At first I was skeptical about the whole cleaning process but it isn't difficult. I like to empty it and refill it twice a week instead of once.
"like it alot!"2010-04-13 By Lisa B. Sarne (Pearl City, Hawaii United States) My dogs didn't take to it right away. It took awhile for them to get used to it. I gave it 5 stars because I'm not cleaning and filling up their water bowl every 4 hours (I have 2 big "kids"). I fill up the reservoir maybe once a day. Cleaning wasn't as bad as I thought after reading the other reviews I was dreading it, but its really not that hard. I love my Drinkwell, it was well worth the $$!
"Big Dog Waterer"2010-03-23 By wwcanis Save your money. Worst waterer I have ever purchased. Water in bowl must be changed and the bowl cleaned daily. The pump is noisy. The waterer takes alot of time to clean it even with the cleaning kit. Buy an Ergo Pet Waterer if you want a fountain that actually supplies enough water for a big dog and does not need to be cleaned every day.
