Some pets show clear signs, like scooting or vomiting, while others have no symptoms at all. Without proper prevention, parasites can lead to:<ul><li>Digestive issues (vomiting, diarrhea, weight loss)</li><li>Anemia or malnutrition</li><li>Itchy skin or allergic reactions</li><li>Life-threatening conditions like heartworm disease</li><li>Transmission of parasites like roundworms or hookworms to humans</li></ul>That’s why prevention and routine screening are just as important as treatment.Common Internal and External ParasitesInternal Parasites (Worms):<ul><li>Roundworms</li><li>Hookworms</li><li>Whipworms</li><li>Tapeworms</li><li>Giardia</li><li>Coccidia</li></ul>External Parasites:<ul><li>Fleas</li><li>Ticks</li><li>Mites</li><li>Lice</li></ul>How We Protect Your PetOur parasite prevention plans are tailored to your pet’s age, lifestyle, and risk factors.
