How you can protect your puppy with flea and tick treatments.

Your puppy loves the outdoors and having the opportunity to play with its friends. However, some of those associates aren't good for your puppy! Fleas and ticks lurk outdoors, waiting for your dog to flop down into the grass or sniff through the brush so they can hitch a ride into your home. These pests are masters at hiding deep in your puppy's fur, making them hard to detect. Here are some details on how to protect your beloved pet from these awful pests.

Are Flea and Tick Treatments Safe?

Flea and tick treatments are vital to your dog's overall health. They help keep your puppy or adult dog free of these annoying pests. However, some brands available on the market use harsh chemicals that you may not feel comfortable using on your dog. If you can't read half of the ingredients on the label, do you really want to use them on your pooch? There are other options, such as non-toxic flea and tick treatments, to keep your pooch pest-free.

Are Fleas and Ticks Dangerous to Your Dog’s Health?

Is it really that big of a deal? A few ticks and fleas aren't that serious, are they? When fleas and ticks are unnoticed and untreated, they can cause serious health problems for your pet. They can irritate the skin and create an environment where infections can set in. They can cause problems with inflamed skin and rashes. They leave scabs and scaly skin behind. Behavioral issues can arise from the itching and discomfort - how can your pooch focus on behaving well if he's distracted by fleas and ticks? Worst of all, these pests can be a vector for disease and illness, leading to vet visits and expensive treatments. Some of these diseases can be transmitted to humans when fleas and ticks get into your home, such as strep throat, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and Lyme disease. By getting flea and tick treatments for your pet, you're ensuring that everyone in your home will enjoy better health.
