So what's this threads' consensus?? My lab tested negative a year ago when I got him from a shelter. I gave him Trifexis every month as recommended by my vet and now a year later he turns up positive. I have him on the antibiotic for a month and then they are planning on doing the shots over 2 days and then I have to keep him calm for 30 days. Should I switch him off Trifexis after this??

I'm the OP and my vet said after treatment (assuming successful) switch to another preventative.

I'll update the OP through the process of kenneling with our experience. Maybe it will spark conversation or help others dealing with it.
