Flea Tick And Worm

Regular flea, tick and worm treatment is a must for the long-term health and wellbeing of your dog. Parasite protection not only keeps your dog safe but also your family members too, sometimes if your dog is infested these nasties can transfer to humans and other pets too.  

Treatments can come in topical spot on’s, chews and tablets. 

• Spot on’s are a liquid that goes on topically to the back of your dogs neck

• Chews are often meat flavoured and dogs may eat them like a treat

• Tablets can be given orally or hidden in your dogs’ food 

 

Flea and Tick Treatment for Dogs

Fleas can be a very annoying pest for your pup, causing itchy and irritated skin. They can also be quite hard to find as they’re small and quick-moving, so, prevention is the best method. You can try flea medications, sprays, collars and more, use what will suit you and your dog the best. 

It is very important to actively protect your dog against paralysis ticks. These ticks live along the East Coast of Australia and generally come out in warmer weather, however, they have been found all over Australia and during the colder months also. Tick paralysis is a very serious and potentially fatal condition so it’s best to keep your pet protected all year round.
