Family Parasite Prevention
In order to increase awareness for the potential of our pets to
pass diseases on to people, we are proud to be promoting family parasite prevention. Parasite transmission from pets to their owners
has been an ever increasing concern over the past decade. We are going to take
this awareness one step further in the next two months. We need to protect our
pets and families from the diseases that they can silently carry right into our
houses.
As a first line of defense is detection. To do this, we are
offering a Parasite Detection Package. For dogs this will consist of a
fecal exam, 10 blood chemistries, a CBC, Heartworm test and Tick-borne disease
screen. For cats it will be a fecal exam, 10 blood chemistries, a CBC, and a
Heartworm test.
The second line of defense is prevention. We need to protect
against Heartworms, intestinal parasites, fleas and ticks. We can do this by
keeping your pets on some sort of annual preventative (Heartgard Plus and
Frontline Plus for dogs and Revolution for cats). These steps will allow us to
keep your pet parasite/disease free and protect your family all at the same
time. Please call us today and schedule your pets Annual Exam and Parasite
Prevention Screen.
