Banfield of Clearwater, Florida recommended and prescribed a very toxic new heartworm medication named Simparica that has the ingredient Isoxazoline masquerading under the name Sarolaner. Simparica treats heartworm, worms, ticks, fleas and mites. FDA has warned that Isoxazoline found in three pet drugs including Simparica causes dog seizures and tremors in dogs of all breeds and with no previous history of neurological tremors. Lots of dog parents reporting of such life threatening reactions with use of these drugs. There is an FDA warning regarding all Isoxazoline containing pet drugs. I only bought 2 pills, and went home and researched. I never administer anything to my dog unless I have researched it thoroughly first. After research, then went back to Banfield 2 days later and returned the never used sealed 2 pills. Banfield refused both refund and credit. My dog will continue using Sentinel Plus for his heartworm medication instead of the Banfield pushed Simparica.

I know that Dr Tara Ravangard is a conscientious doctor that would not prescribe toxic FDA warning drugs to her dog patients. I wonder if Big corrupted Pharma is pushing this toxic drugs to be prescribed at BAnfield. No, I am not the usual dumb down and manipulated consumer, I research everything. Something is wrong when I ask for Dr. Ravangard and never see her at BAnfield in Clearwater.

NOTE: Epidemic of itching / loss hair / bites on skin among dogs and cats in March 2022. Observation showed these are microscopic airborne mites biting dogs as well as humans. The air above my yard contained biting aerial microscopic mites, which I waived off with my hand. Do microscopic mites fly?......NO, unless they have been genetically modified and engineered. Could be some type of genetically modified aerial mites vectors / pathogens dispersed through airplane chemtrails or purposely disseminated from the Bay Pines VA complex bioweapons lab, perhaps remote controlled to locations...a possibility for covert experimentation on unsuspecting pets and humans in the area.

Many such different pathogenic and genetically modified bioweapon vector and pathogen releases in the area adversely affecting both humans and pets in the past 16 years, which I believe and suspect and is of my opinion that is coming from Bay Pines VA complex bioweapons lab in Florida and three other collaborators: like DARPA NOT so so "Friendly" GM weaponzed mites and insects" and perhaps and I greatly suspect and is of my opinion in collaboration with Tampa BAy Industrial Fumigant company ( which also contains a gm entomology lab), Big Pharma companies collaborations and military plane aerial dispersals.

So, until further investigation can be done by scientists with integrity which have not been bought out or under a non disclosure agreement, some of my suspicions and opinions could end up being true or false. I do not have proof of the suspected culprits, but definitely lots of research, experience, and observations of what has been happening in the St. Petersburg and Clearwater area for the past 16 years.
