Can Petco vets prescribe flea and tick medicine for my dog or cat?
Petco carries a variety of flea and tick medication over the counter. You can only get a prescription product from a veterinarian if they have examined Bruno. Petco does offer vaccine clinics but you would need to check with the specific services individually. Here is a link: https://www.vetcoclinics.com/ I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.

Can Petco help me find accurate medication dosages for my dog?
Unfortunately, we are not permitted to give out drug dosages without a veterinarian - client - pet relationship. If you are seeking this information, I would obtain it through a veterinarian in person or through a veterinary formulary such as Plumb's or Merck. Hope this makes sense.

Vet Q & A
How to choose safe tapeworm medicine for my dog traveling to Europe?
Cestex is a perfectly good tapeworm treatment. At the appropriately labeled doses, most pet deworms are very safe. If you haven't already, I would consult with a veterinarian on starting the health certificate process. It can take several months to complete any necessary testing and getting the paperwork all lined up for international travel. And you will likely need a veterinarian's record of a medication prescribed for Henry for treatment of tapeworms.
