Flea and Tick Prevention
Fleas and ticks can cause discomfort and transmit diseases. Since Medford’s climate allows these pests to survive year-round, it’s essential to give your pets consistent protection. We offer a variety of flea and tick prevention products and can recommend the best option for your pet’s needs.
Heartworm Prevention for Dogs
Heartworm is a serious condition transmitted by mosquitoes and is common in Southern Oregon and Northern California. If left untreated, it can lead to heart failure. Regular testing and monthly heartworm prevention help protect your pet. Many heartworm preventatives also safeguard against intestinal parasites like hookworms and roundworms.
Intestinal Parasite Prevention
Intestinal parasites, including roundworms, tapeworms, hookworms, whipworms, coccidia, and giardia, can cause vomiting, diarrhea, and dehydration. Routine fecal exams help detect these parasites early. Monthly heartworm prevention aids in controlling hookworms and roundworms, while flea prevention helps reduce the risk of tapeworm infections.
Dental Care for Pets
Oral health is a crucial part of your pet’s overall well-being. Dental issues can lead to infections that may impact the heart, liver, and kidneys. Regular brushing, dental treats, and routine professional cleanings help prevent disease. During your pet’s annual wellness exam, we assess their teeth and gums and recommend cleanings if necessary.
Signs of dental problems include:
- Bad breath
- Yellow or brown tartar buildup
- Red or swollen gums
- Difficulty eating or loss of appetite
