If your dog or cat is suffering from flea and/or tick infestations, the continual aggravation caused by these pests means that they are not thriving. Fleas can cause itchy skin, skin infections, and spread tapeworms. Ticks carry several diseases that can cause serious health problems, such as Lyme Disease, Ehrlichiosis, Anaplasmosis, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, Hepatozoonosis and Babesiosis.

Dogs and cats can also carry several intestinal parasites. Some of those are transmissible to humans (especially children and immunocompromised adults).

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions Everyone Should Ask Their Veterinarian.

Is My Pet at a Healthy Weight?

More than half of the dogs and cats in the U.S. are overweight, according to a recent survey by the Association for Pet Obesity and Prevention. Even worse, many pet owners with overweight dogs or cats deny there is even a problem with their pet. Ask your veterinarian if your pet is within the appropriate weight range for her breed, size and stature. Then, if there is a problem, you can work in tandem on how to solve the issue. This also applies if you suspect your pet is underweight, though it’s less typical.

Could I be providing a more appropriate food?

Good health begins with proper nutrition, and who best to ask what is appropriate for your pet than your veterinarian. Once they evaluate your pet they can recommend diets that are appropriate for your pet’s life stage, lifestyle and any other factors or underlying health conditions that apply.

Is That (Insert Odd Behavior Here) Normal?

Don’t automatically assume that your pet wheezing after a bout of exercise is normal, or that it’s common for pets to itch every time they go outside. An annual pet wellness exam is a great time to ask your vet about any peculiarities you’ve noticed in your animal over the past year. Keep a running list as these things happen so you can note to your doctor exactly what the issue was, when it first occurred and how often it has occurred since.

Is My Pet Up to Date on Shots?

It never hurts to make sure your furry friend is totally up-to-date on all his or her vaccinations and immunizations—it’s something that can easily be overlo

Does My Pet Need a Dental Cleaning?

Dental disease is a common problem among pets. In fact, it’s estimated that 80% of dogs and 70% of cats over the age of 3 years suffer from some degree of periodontal disease. If left untreated, this can lead to other more serious health complications such as issues with the kidney, liver, even the heart. Ask your veterinarian if Fido or Fluffy is due for a dental cleaning. “Rather than wait for a problem to develop,” says Dr. Ashley Gallagher, a veterinarian at Friendship Hospital for Animals, “it is best to perform a teeth cleaning when only mild gingivitis and/or tartar are present. This will maintain good dental health and prevent disease before it becomes a problem … which in turn helps you save money and keep your pet healthy!”

Does My Pet Need a Blood Test?

Blood tests screen for a variety of issues, including kidney and liver disease, diabetes, cancer and a variety of other issues that can be treated if caught early. Regular blood tests will also give your veterinarian a baseline to compare against over time.

What Flea/Tick Meds Do You Recommend for My Pet?

Fleas and ticks are not only a nuisance; they can also transmit deadly diseases to you and your pet. Fortunately, there are many options when it comes to killing and preventing fleas and ticks. Ask your veterinarian about the differences between popular medications on the market (for example, topical versus oral medications) and which suits you and your pet’s lifestyle the best. There are even some oral medications which protect against both fleas and ticks for up to 12 weeks with just a single dose.

What are these Lumps and Bumps?

It’s not unusual for lumps and bumps to develop as pets age. However, unusual skin changes can also be an indication of cancer. Point out any new lumps, bumps or strange moles that have appeared since your last visit. The veterinarian can then determine if a biopsy is warranted.
