Announcements

FLEAS AND TICKS

Please don't let up on your monthly Flea and Tick control. As many of you know the fleas are horrible this year and unless you have been religious about applying your flea products and using top quality ones like Frontline Plus and Promeris you are likely suffering the effects of infestation on your pet and in your home too. Symptoms may include itchy skin disease and hot spots or excessive grooming and secondary gastrointestinal problems. Call our office today for advice on products that will help you and your pet recover from an infestation. Other products we carry are Program injectable for cats and Preventic collars for dogs and Capstar for both dogs and cats.

Mosquitos and Heartworms

Many people do not realize that mosquitoes are the transmission hosts for heartworm disease in our dogs. I have seen mosquitoes in my yard already this year. We must prevent this deadly disease by blood testing for heartworm yearly and keeping our dogs on preventative monthly. Cats can also contract heartworm disease, however it is not as common. Available preventative products are Intercepter, Iverheart Max, and Sentinel. Ask about current rebates.
