Parasites can affect your animal in a variety of ways, ranging from simple irritation to causing life-threatening conditions if left untreated. And while parasites can affect your animal year round, they are especially vulnerable as the temperatures rise and we spend more time outdoors.
Luckily, as your veterinarian we can help prevent, accurately diagnose, and safely treat parasites and other health problems that not only affect your dog or cat, but also the safety of you and your family.
Responsible animal parasite control can reduce the risks associated with transmission of parasitic diseases from animals to people. By following a few simple guidelines, animal owners can better protect their animals and their family. Review this check list provided by the Companion Animal Parasite Council.
