Here are a few of the comments left on the petition.
We just lost our German Shepherd of 8 years to what a second opinion vet has ruled his death to liver failure. His normal vet gave him bravecto along with other medications on Tuesday he was so severely anemic by Thursday he died of liver failure on Friday. He was 8 and perfectly healthy the new vet feels the cause of death was due to bravecto given with antiyeast medication this can not happen again
Stacey Harmless, Tiline, KY

Both of my dogs had problems soon after their first and last dose. My 4 year old dog died less than 24 hours after his first dose and my 3 year old dog almost lost his life less than 30 hours after taking his first dose and is still having issues to this day.
Patti Mastric, Port Orange, FL

BRAVECTO also killed by Staffordshire Bull terrier, Magic. Magic showed all signs of the listed "mild side effects" of BRAVECTO from about 48 hours after taking it. By 10 days she had to be put to sleep due to liver failure. I wish I had been warned about BRAVECTO as wouldn't of gone near it. Our local vets were promoting it at the time. Magic was a 15 year old bitch who had fought off so many previous conditions. She was still gojng out walking every day and, despite her years, had a good quality of life. The guilt you carry when you let your dog have something that results in their death is horrific. I can't bring Magic back but I would spare and other dog this unnecessary painful death and the owner this devastation. It should be removed from the market immediately.
Deb Purchase, Newquay, United Kingdom

My dog also had seizures and it was caused by liver failure after we used bravecto
Dellanise Vorster, Rustenburg, South Africa
Our dog of 7 years has passed away after change to Bravecto. No known previous health concerns. Used Bravecto once and within 4 weeks she was unwell. Diagnosis cancer previously perfect.
Donna Bye, Australia

My peke had bad side effects to this medication - including seizures!
Lisa-Marie Nicholls, JHB, South Africa

My Pekingese was thrown a meter across the floor by an epileptic fit that she has never had before. Sudden aggression in her and my male Peke who bit me in my face went I bent over him to pick something up from the floor. The Vet was perplexed and had no answers to this sudden behaviour because my Pekes are very loving and would never attack anyone.
Ann Weppen, Sedgefield, South Africa

My Jack Russell dog nearly died after taking this product. It was recommended by our vet for fleas treatment. Cost us $2500 in vet fees to make her better. This product is pure poison. It should not be given to any dog. We are very lucky our dog is still alive.
Emma Tobin, Australia

I had 3 min pins die due to bravecto and nothing was done for my poor babies
John Malone, Katy, TX

I am signing this petition because my THREE dogs have taken a severe reaction to this drug..they were all healthy dogs however, within a very short period of time all these terrible symptoms had started to appear..my dogs are on a very heathy raw appropriate diet and no junk in their diets as well..this insidious drug is causing grief to pets and their owners world wide..it needs to be pulled from the market place before anymore animals are hurt..if it was a human drug with such overwhelming reported cases to the relevant authorities it would be off the market in a flash...
Lillian Oxley, Gympie, Australia

My dog has blood tests before using Bravecto and all was good, during Bravecto the blood tests showed liver problems, he had skin sores rashes,vomiting yellow frothy bile, yellow diarrohea, weak hind limbs amongst other reported side effects, MSD keep releasing statements that side effects are very low and such as vomiting ect, they fail to mention in each statement the hundreds of dogs that have suffered seizures, organ damage, death and many other very often reported events of dogs using Bravecto
susan shaw, Spain

A friends dog has died from this horrible drug, my 3 dogs have used it once and one became very larthargic, she was lucky as she is fine now but many others have not been so lucky I would never use this product again and in fact I'm sticking to natural remedies now as we don't know what we are putting into our precious fur family!
Sophie Holland, Bournemouth, United Kingdom

I'm signing because my cocker spaniel died after I gave her Bravecto, she was not sick and nothing was wrong with her till I gave her that pill.
Lori Wysluzaly, Remsen, NY

I am signing the petition because killed my beloved dog Skipper a Parti Pom so Bravecto needs to come off the shelves now and never kill another baby.
Sherry Purdy, Pierson, FL

I lost my healthy 10 month old pup to this drug. 40 minutes after dosing she collapsed and became unresponsive. After 7 long weeks, untold number of tests and treatments (none of which worked), and terrible suffering, she had to be euthanized due to severe side effects.... anemia from the bloody diarrhea and vomiting that started within days and continued throughout those weeks, anorexia, kidney failure and a staggeringly high white blood cell count. She suffered from polydipsia, neurologic changes (hallucinations), open sores, a depressed immune system, and other symptoms.
The Merck vet I spoke to the day after I gave this to her, agreed her symptoms were caused by Bravecto.
Too many dogs have suffered and died. It's time to stop this now.
Barbara Mandy, Lewiston, ME

I had a puppy(10mo) that died after being given Bravecto. He had been to the Vet for a check up and bloodwork less than 2 weeks before- all perfect. Died less than a week after being given this medication..HE COULD NOT BE SAVED!!
Piera Brown, Arlington Heights, IL

I am personally aware of 2 dogs that have died due to taking Bravecto for the first time and 2 other dogs who had side effects.
Louise Spagnuolo, Cape TOWN, South Africa

I'm singing because I am a veterinary nurse and am not comfortable having a dangerous product on my shelves
Emily cutler, Peggy McElroy

My dog Bonita was given this pill for mange and died a month later vet said it was a neological problem when I rushed her to hospital and everyday pressuring me to put her to sleep because she wasn't responding to treatments given
Marie Brancaccio, New York City, NY

After my dog was given Bravecto he had cluster seizures and before that he averaged one a year. Right after he got the pill this happened. Went to my veterinarian to report this.
Heather Olsen, Fremont, MI

I am signing this petition because I almost lost my 8 month old Labrador puppy after he had his first dose...
Mary Shippley, Port Orchard, WA

We want to kill fleas and ticks NOT our beloved pets
petro vos, cape town, South Carlotta E Gianni Brunetti

I had a client's young English bulldog die from kidney failure shortly after the use of this evil product.
Michalia Damigos, Germiston, South Africa

My 8 week old puppy became very sick from this crap and was rushed to the vet.Both he and my older dog are still showing adverse reactions to it after being given it on the 4th March
Nicole Ryan, Australia

I'm signing because our dog, a Bullterrier, is now dead. We gave her a Bravecto pill in October 2015. Short after that she began to vomit and her behaviour changed from very friendly to aggressive to our other dogs. She began to get fits (seizures) for the first time in October 2015. Beginning of January this year she continuously got seizures and bit our other dogs and cats as to kill them. We thought it was rabies and the vet putted her down. Her brain were send to the State vet and the results was that it was NOT rabies. Now after reading about Bravecto's side effects we realize what it was: Bravecto. We gave Bravecto about a week ago to our new puppy (rescued from dying of hunger) and 2 days ago this puppy started to vomit. He is also itching very much since we gave him Bravecto. Take Bravecto off of the market please!
Elizabeth Badenhorst, Bloemfontein, South Africa

This product made my dog horribly sick with the worst diarrhea I have ever seen. By day two she was pooping liquid chocolate and her stomach was just rumbling something horrible. I spent so much time and money on Vet visits and medicine to try and help my dog get better. Her pain was so heartbreaking. I had to sleep with her for two nights because of the severity of the diarrhea literally going out every hour if not sooner all night and through the morning.
Leticia Laroche, Naperville, IL

I have a very strong suspicion that one of my dogs died because of Bravecto. The vet suspected rat poison, she died after she had a seizure.
Ralf Schäfer, Green Point, South Africa

This drug/pesticide is sooo lethal ! Sooo many dogs have died or are suffering horrific adverse effects every day. there is NO ANTIDOTE for this drug/pesticide, Bravecto is a three month dose. dogs have never been given Bravecto nor will they.
Elizabeth Ongaro, Lynchburg, TN

I gave this flea and tick treatment to my dog and the next morning he had runny and bloody poo and constant bleeding out of his bottom as well as vomitting. After taking him to the vets he is still unwell and has blood in his bottom aswell as miserable and lethargic and not himself. This has clearly poisoned my dog and I hope to god he will be okay.
Nicole M, Mount Gambier,

My four dogs started off by eating the pill, then not wanting to eat it, then by spitting out the food that I hid it in, and then by vomitting after I gave it to them. For 2 days the one did not want to eat, and the older one got very sick, throwing up lots of yellow fluid after I forced the pill in. I believe with my whole heart that the Bravecto pillw were the cause of it.
Annelize van der Merwe, Cape Town, South Africa

This drug is causing major side effects, deaths and heartache - the drug co are in denial as their profits clearly come first. Yes some dogs have had no issues on it and were lucky but many others all over the world have suffered - lets stop others from losing their precious pets and stop vets promoting this poison. My dog did not die - I was fortunate but it caused major reported adverse effects and £600 in vets bills but many dogs died so I got off lightly in comparison.
Charlotte Campbell, Truro, United Kingdom

My Golden Retriever used Bravecto in 2015 and developed severe dyspnea (shortness of breath) for many months. Bravecto was discontinued and the shortness of breath gradually disappeared.
Gwen Brun, Bergen, Norway

I'm signing because my healthy 8 year old dachshund almost died from one dose of Bravecto. I gave it for fleas on 24 November 2015. On 13 December she needed stiches because she cut herself. Her muscles were weak somehow. She vomited thick sticky yellow stuff. After 25 December she was really sick. Just lying. No energy. Vomiting the whole time and everything she ate came out. She was in pain. She drank a lot of water. Then no eating at all. Lost weight. Eyes were yellow. Ears were yellow. Urine was a dark yellow. Stomach stopped. Blood tests confused the vet. Low red blood count. High white blood count.Small liver. Full gallbladder with a 'line' and slush. Kidneys under stress. A mass in the stomach which made the sonar difficult. And by the third day pancreatitis was discovered on 6 January 2016. There was no real treatment. I gave her special food since she refused the cans prescription diet. She itched a lot and was scratching like mad till the poison was out of her system by end of February. I will never use this again since I believe Bravecto was the cause of everything. My dog recovered but I am still very careful with her food and still detox.
