There are many different parasites. Our veterinarians can provide you with not only medications but also strategies to prevent parasites like fleas, ticks, heartworms, intestinal worms, and others from infesting your pets.
Many of these parasites can also pose health risks to humans. Fleas and ticks can bite people just as easily as they bite pets, causing itching and potentially transmitting diseases. Gastrointestinal parasites can cause significant health problems in children and adults so it is important to know how to eliminate the risk of infection from your pets. Implementing a parasite prevention plan is crucial for safeguarding the health and well-being of you and your pet.
The veterinarians at Twinbrook Animal Clinic, Inc. will discuss the importance of regular fecal examinations to screen your pets for internal parasites as well as prophylactic deworming schedules. Working with your veterinarian to implement a comprehensive parasite prevention plan is crucial for keeping your pet happy and healthy.
