PARASITE CONTROL
Along with bacterial infections and viruses, animal parasites, such as fleas, ticks, worms, and more are very common and can impact your pet's health in serious ways. Parasites can make your pet anemic (via parasitic blood loss), malnourished (due to nutrients being taken by parasites and not absorbed by you pet), and may even result in the transmission of dangerous pathogens.
Even if your favorite cat or dog is considered an in-door only pet, there is still a concern of parasites, especially intestinal worms. Fleas also love to hide indoors when winter approaches, so it doesn't have to be summer for your pet to get fleas!
We will help you and your family understand the various risk factors for the most common parasites in the area and will provide the means to prevent and protect you pet from parasite infection with the safest and most effective treatments tailored specifically to your pet, whether they are avid outdoor hikers or couch potatoes
