Will probably differ from vet to vet. Best advice is to ask a number of vets and go for the best price.

They all vary i think it is about 25tl, i had the round worm one done for both my dog & cat they were 35tl each. All the the treatments do add up but to be honest it is worth it there is such a high risk in N.cyprus from disease.

The vets I know are so go. Pertev he is Girne near passport restaurant Isil sok no 10/1 Karaligil Apt, Girne mobile no 05338635818 or 03928153430. The other very good Vets are Petcross they are just up the Ballapais road turning down a road by Starling supermarket. They will help you.

Are there any active diseases going around such as parvo virus and distemper etc? Information available on the internet now suggests that annual boosters shouldn't be given as they can lower the dogs immune systems. Its a case of damned if you do and damned if you don't nowadays!

Funny that Botanica, my uncle a vet told me that years ago, a bit like us with polio, tetanus etc one jab brings our immune system into touch with it and it remembers how to fight it. My dogs are wormed, frontlined regularly but as they are not in direct contact with other dogs the boys had their first jabs and the collie had two years as he was in contact with the boys when they were injected and my uncle said he may pick up some side effects.

Thanks all for the info, I just couldn't remember how much I paid last year and just wondered if that price had escalated along with other prices. An interesting dilemma, boosters or not but mine occasionally go into kennels and I am sure all dogs should have their boosters as prerequisite of going in.
