It’s that time of year, Flea & Tick season is never fun for pet owners or their pets
Fleas feed on the blood of companion animals and their bites can lead to irritation and skin allergies. Sometimes these pests are no more than a nasty nuisance, but they have the potential to cause serious problems. Fleas can transmit tapeworms, bartonella bacteria, and can cause severe anemia in young animals.

Fireworks and Furry Family Members
Every July 4th there are pet casualties, so I thought I’d take this opportunity well in advance of Independence Day celebrations to remind dog and cat owners of the dangers associated with this particular holiday.
- Fireworks displays can be stressful and frightening for animal companions, so if you’re planning to take your pet along, you might want to reconsider. Even pets left at home can be frightened of the loud noises that seem to go on and on the evening of July 4th.
- Signs your pet is afraid of fireworks include shaking, barking, howling, excessive drooling, hiding, or escape attempts.
- With planning, you can prevent problems with your pet over the July 4th holiday.
