Usage
FirstShield™ Trio should be applied topically as directed by your veterinarian. This medication should be administered at every 30 day intervals, year-round to guarantee complete protection.
Immediately before use, open the pouch and remove the tube. Hold the applicator with the cap in the upright position (tip up). Place thumb and index finger around the applicator tip under the large disk.  With the other hand, grasp the stem of applicator tip about the smaller disk. Press down firmly on small disk until both disks meet, piercing the seal. Always keep the tube in the upright position to prevent leaking.
With the dog standing with its back horizontal, part the fur at the administration site (between the shoulder blades) until skin is visible. Place the tip of the applicator vertically against the skin between the shoulder blades of the dog.  Squeeze the tube and gently apply the solution in one to 4 spots (depending on weight of dog) starting at the shoulder blades continuing down the spine, apply in areas that are inaccessible to licking.  Avoid applying an excessive amount of solution in any one spot which may cause some to run or drip off the dog. 
Do not contact or allow children to contact the application site until dry.  Wash hands and contacted skin thoroughly with soap and water immediately after application.
Missed Dose
Give the dose as soon as you remember, unless it is time for the next dose.  Do not double dose.  If your dog has missed a dose please consult with your veterinarian.
