Flea collars dont work. Wasted money. Should have got Frontline Plus.
Take off the flea collar she may be allergic to it, as dogs can sometimes be allergic to the chemicals in them, also give her a bath in a puppy flea shampoo, and see what happens as she is old, I would take her to the vet for a check up anyway. vetnurse/dog groomer.
Maybe she needs a pee..?
Take off that stupid flea collar!! They are toxic!
take off the flea collar, they don't work and can cause your dog to be sick. that may be the problem. if your dog has a flea problem, use frontline or advantage from the vet. have you tried anything new - food, routine, etc this past week? remove the flea collar and wash her and if she doesn't change, take her to the vet.

Iowa veterinarians are cautioning pet owners that chemicals in over-the-counter flea products can be dangerous. Kids are also at risk because of their tendency to cuddle the family's animal.
The Humane Society of the United States has also weighed in, advising that active ingredients in these products can cause serious problems.
Dr. Denise Mankin, a veterinarian at the Animal Emergency Clinic in Des Moines, said she has treated a number of cases of poisoning on pets from over-the-counter products such as Zodiac, Hartz and Top Spot topical applications and some shampoos. Symptoms range from muscle tremors to heavy
salivation and tearing, hyperactivity to semi-comatose conditions, and seizures. At the extreme, the outcome can be brain damage or even death.
"During the actual flea season, we'll see one or more cases a week, sometimes up to half-dozen a week, depending on how severe fleas are," she said.
She was on duty a few nights ago when a cat was brought in with the symptoms of chemical poisoning.
The animal had been treated with a few drops of a liquid topical spot product, apllied between the cat's shoulder blades. Topical spot products are systemics, meaning it invades the flea's nervous system on contact with the
host animal and causes the flea to die.
The product's active ingredient is pyrethrin, a seemingly harmless derivative of chrysanthemums. Pyrethrin is one of the most common ingredients in over-the-counter flea products and the culprit in many of the cases Mankin
treats.http://www.wildlifeprotection.net/everyt.
get the flea collar off ur dog it can kill him
Flea collars don't work, sensible fleas simply move to the dog's rump instead! Somes dogs even have an allergic reaction to flea collars, which may be what your dog is suffering from. Check the packaging, does it contain organophosphate chemicals? Most dogs can have an extremely allergic reaction to this, so get a flea collar which dsnt contain this or, even better, use flea shampoos, or flea sprays. I prefer to use Frontline on my pup when she catches fleas, and its always effective, if you follow the instructions.
If you have any more problems like this, mail me!
Good luck,

She might have fleas, flea collars are a waste of time and money. Take her to the vet for a check up and get the proper flea treatment.
Use a nit comb and comb through the hair around the root of her tail on to a piece of white paper; if you get little black/brown specks on the paper then its flea dirt.
She may have an upset tum, or an infection, or perhaps a skin problem; take her to the vet as soon as possible- she is obviously in some discomfort. At 10, she is an elderly dog, and we all need a bit of help sometimes! Never, ever put flea collars on any animal; they pump toxic poisons into your animal 24/7/365 and are know to kill. Get the collar off, fast! Good luck.x
