Parasites

Heartworm

Heartworm is spread by mosquitoes, and pets don’t need to be in contact with other animals to get infected. It can cause heart failure, but is preventable with injections, monthly tablets, or spot-on treatments. A heartworm test is recommended before starting prevention.

Intestinal Worms

Common intestinal worms, like roundworms and tapeworms, can cause weight loss, vomiting, and even death. Regular worming is essential, as some worms can also affect humans, especially children. Flea prevention helps control tapeworms.

Flea Prevention

Fleas multiply quickly, and prevention is key to breaking the lifecycle. Monthly treatments are recommended for your pet’s comfort and health.

Tick Prevention

Ticks, especially paralysis ticks, can cause severe illness or death. Regular tick prevention is vital for your pet’s safety, especially in areas where ticks are prevalent.
