When we brought home Monty we also bought a Bayer Seresto flea collar, to avoid getting those annoying bugs into our home.
So far we’ve been very satisfied with it, and I decided to write a REAL review from an ACTUAL owner, instead of those blogs that just recommend a product to get a commission.
In short, The Bayer Seresto Flea and Tick Collar is a great purchase for most Labradoodles. There have been a few cases where a small dog might be lethargic for a few days (just a bit tired, but still ate fine), and this was also something we experienced, but that quickly passed.
To begin with, we’ve only purchased one seeing as they are supposed to have an effective protection for 8 months, but we’ve already ordered a 3-pack for when it’s time to replace the old one.
Price
Even though the collars cost a bit, considering the price on flea drops
We’ve previously spent that mount on drops each month, so if the effectiveness of the collar truly is at least 8 months, that’s going to be quite a saving.
Fitting
It’s also pretty neat that the collar can easily fit next to your labradoodles regular collar, so you don’t have to decide which one to use.
With previous dogs, we’ve often used lubricants of different sorts, but all have been greasy at best, and ineffective at worst. So we’re pretty happy that we’ve found a solution for our Labradoodle, that actually works, and we haven’t had any issues with so far after 4 months of use. (I plan on doing an update on the effectiveness of the collar after the 8 months) The tiredness our dog suffered for all of one day is nothing that concerns us, seeing as he was back to being his old self really fast.

Conclusion
But in closing, Monty loves his collar, and not having to deal with either fleas or ticks has been fantastic for us. The first day where he seemed a bit lazy quickly passed, and ever since we haven’t had any issues at all.

Dog Food: Every dog needs to eat correctly, and finding the best food for your dog can be challenging, as the market is absolutely flooded with products. But since 2015 when the company was founded, I’ve been using Ollie Petfood.
