Why Is Parasite Protection So Important?
Parasites are not just an outdoor problem. Dogs can become infected in many ways, even while living indoors. Monthly parasite prevention helps protect your dog, your family, and your home from harmful infestations and parasite-borne diseases.
Indoor Risks
• Infection from the mother before birth or through nursing
• Mosquito bites carrying heartworm larvae
• Self-grooming by licking paws and coat
• Accidental ingestion of parasite eggs and larvae
Outdoor Risks
• Contact with infected animals or contaminated environments
• Hunting or consuming birds, rodents, or reptiles
• Exposure to larvae that penetrate through the skin
Parasites Can Affect Humans Too
Several canine parasites are zoonotic, meaning they can infect people.
✔ Roundworms
✔ Hookworms
✔ Tapeworms
✔ Heartworms
✔ Tick-borne diseases, including Lyme disease
✔ Flea-borne pathogens, including Bartonella henselae, Rickettsia felis, and Yersinia pestis
