Why Pet Parasite Prevention Matters
If left untreated, parasites can cause discomfort, transmit diseases, and lead to severe health complications.

Regular preventive care is the best way to reduce these risks and ensure your pet stays healthy year-round.
Common Parasites We Help Prevent
- Heartworms: Spread by mosquitoes, these parasites can cause severe heart and lung damage.
- Fleas and Ticks: These external parasites can transmit infections like Lyme disease and Bartonella.
- Intestinal Worms: Roundworms, hookworms, and tapeworms can lead to malnutrition, vomiting, and diarrhea.
- Mites: These tiny parasites can cause intense itching and skin infections.
