Protect Your Pet’s Health Through Parasite Prevention
Edmonton has a large enough population of dangerous insects that you should be proactive about parasite prevention for your pet. Ticks pose a danger to both dogs and cats in three out of their four life stages. There are 17 known species of ticks, which means that preventative care is one of the most important ways that you can protect your pet from fleas, ticks, and other dangerous insects. At Mercy Animal Hospital in Edmonton, our veterinarians are here to help. Contact us today to book an appointment.
Ways You Can Protect Your Pets From Parasites:
- Practice good personal hygiene
- Use preventative flea and tick treatments year-round
- Never feed your pet raw meat
- Minimize exposure to high-traffic pet areas
- Regularly clean up pet feces
- Schedule regular vet checkups
Parasite Prevention
Protect Your Pet’s Health
Since many of the insects that pose a danger to your pet’s health are relatively small, you may not be aware of how many there actually are in and around your home. Since prevention is almost always easier and cheaper than the cure, we encourage you to regularly schedule vet checkups for your furry friends to help them maintain optimal health and wellness. Regular checkups and vaccinations provide the protective barrier they need from the insects that can pose a danger to their health.
