Parasites are organisms that live on or in your pet and feed on their blood or nutrients. They can cause a variety of health problems for your pet, such as anemia, skin infections, intestinal disorders, heart disease, and even death. Some parasites can also infect humans and cause serious diseases. That’s why it’s important to test your pet regularly for parasites and prevent them from infesting your pet through topical treatment and medication.
At Genesee Valley Veterinary Hospital, we offer comprehensive parasite testing and prevention services for dogs and cats. We use advanced diagnostic tools and techniques to detect and identify parasites in your pet’s blood, feces, urine, or skin. We also provide effective treatments and preventive measures to eliminate and prevent parasites from harming your pet.
When Should Your Pet Receive Parasite Testing & Prevention?
New Additions to the Family: Whether you have a new puppy or kitten joining your home or have recently adopted a pet, it is crucial to test them for parasites. These tests help identify and address any existing infestations before they can cause harm.
Annual Wellness Exams: Parasite testing and prevention should be a component of proactive preventive care during routine pet wellness exams. This helps ensure early detection and prompt treatment, reducing the risk of complications.
Seasonal Change: Some parasites are more active or prevalent during certain seasons or weather conditions. For example, mosquitoes that carry heartworms are more common in warm and humid climates, while ticks that carry Lyme disease are more abundant in wooded and grassy areas. We will advise you on how to protect your pet from seasonal parasites.
