How to Protect Your Puppy with
Regular Flea and Tick Treatments
Christin Boyte • July 31, 2019
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.
