Which External Anti-Parasitic Product For Pets Is The Best?

Which External Anti-Parasitic Product For Pets Is The Best?

Posted on October 22, 2020 by Danny Armstrong

There is no single method to prevent fleas, ticks, mosquitoes, and other parasites . Our recommendation is to use the product that best suits your pet’s particular situation or need. Depending on where you live (outside or inside), if you live with other animals and the habits of the animal greatly influence the choice.

There is a wide range of these products on the market, very effective and safe. The use of one or a combination of several is always recommended for the most effective protection.

HOW SHOULD I FEED MY DOG OR CAT?

This question is very important, since many new owners do not know the needs of their new companions and can act negatively causing disorders and health problems in their puppies. Currently we know very precisely the nutritional needs of dogs, cats and exotic animals in the different stages of their lives, therefore, pet food manufacturers offer very balanced and high quality products, following the guidelines of nutrition experts.

We can find a multitude of foods of different qualities and prices in very varied formats and with formulas both in feed and in wet, which are adapted to the stages of growth, maintenance of adults, senior animals and special diets for different conditions or diseases. We must consult with professionals who recommend and report properly.

Home-style eating is increasingly in decline because it involves work and effort and tends to cause nutritional deficits. In addition, feeding with remains and offal is totally discouraged due to the risks it poses for our pet’s digestive and general health.

WHY IS STERILIZATION RECOMMENDED?

Many owners who come to the clinic ask us about sterilization and its procedure very frequently. There are many advantages and some disadvantages.

In the case of cats, this procedure is widely recognized in both males and females, to avoid, above all, the problem of annoying behavior that they originate when entering heat, urinary marking and unwanted litters. In addition, it is important to know that the incidence of mammary and reproductive tumors decreases considerably, the animals become more sociable and have a longer life span. On the other hand, the risk of obesity is higher and the risks inherent to the surgery itself, which are minimal.

In dogs, these procedures are increasingly widespread thanks to the information and interest that owners have in improving the quality of life of their pets, and reducing problems related to reproduction, and behaviors: mammary or testicular tumors, unwanted litters , abandonments, aggressiveness, uterine infections, delivery problems, vagrancy and losses.

Remember that it is a cliché to think that it is an advantage for the female to have at least one litter for her health.

IS IT NECESSARY TO VACCINE MY DOG OR CAT?

Not only is it necessary and advisable to vaccinate our pets , it is also mandatory by law to vaccinate against rabies. But above all it is essential in order to ensure the prevention of serious and sometimes fatal diseases that they may suffer throughout their lives.

Vaccination programs are varied but they must be established individually according to age, health conditions, environmental situations, risk factors, endemic diseases etc … In this way we will achieve adequate immunity at each stage of the animal’s life. The start of vaccination is between six weeks and six months. Subsequently, it is advisable to revaccinate periodically annually, biannually, etc.

IS IT NORMAL FOR MY PET TO SCRATCH SO MUCH?

Excessive hair loss or compulsive scratching of your pet are situations that cause annoyance to owners: dirty floors, the sound of scratching at night, restlessness and injuries to the pet’s skin, etc. If your dog or cat scratches more frequently than normal, compulsively and lesions appear on the skin, we must know the cause that may be behind itching because it may have an abnormal origin: parasites, allergies, infections and other diseases of different nature.

Our pets shed their hair twice a year, normally in spring and fall. It is advisable to brush as often as possible at the time of change, with the appropriate utensils depending on whether you have long or short layers. The health and appearance of the hair is closely related to the quality of the food we provide to our pets

Know What Are The Basic Care Of Your Pets

Posted on October 22, 2020October 22, 2020 by Danny Armstrong

All pets have different cares, depending on the type of animal it is and its breed.

Whether it is a dog, cat, iguana, hamster or fish, each one needs different attention, so it is good to always consult with a veterinarian.

Animals are often kept as domestic companions.

The best way to keep pets healthy is to consistently meet their wellness needs.

Animal welfare groups use the following checklist to judge whether an animal is as happy and healthy as possible. Your pet must be:

– Free from hunger and thirst.
– Free from discomfort.
– Free from pain, injury and illness.
– Free from fear and pain.
– Free to express normal behavior.

This final point means that we must understand our pets’ behavioral needs and give them the opportunity to express them.

Here are some basic precautions that we must bear in mind:

– Respect and affection : pets are not toys or objects. They are beings that feel and suffer. Before acquiring a pet, think about whether you can take care of it throughout its life.
– Protection: give it a safe place to shelter from heat and cold.
– Food: give him a daily, healthy and balanced diet (croquettes). You should always have fresh, clean water. Wash your dishes daily.
– Cleaning:you should keep it clean, flea and tick free. You should bathe your dog every 15 days with special soap and cats need to be brushed to remove dust and loose hair. Also keep the area where it lives clean.
– Health: take your dog or cat to the doctor when you see that it does not act normal. Keep your vaccination and deworming chart always up to date.

Do not give him home remedies or human medicine.

– Sterilization:as a society, we have the responsibility that pets have a real chance of finding a home with responsible people, capable of giving them a decent life; It is precisely for this reason that we must avoid the birth of those unwanted, who will otherwise end up being sacrificed, mistreated or abandoned. Take your pet to be sterilized.
– Exercise: dogs and cats need exercise. This helps waste energy and do less damage. Take your dog for walks on a leash daily.
– Training:cats and dogs can learn if we educate them with love, perseverance and patience. Rewarded actions repeat them: give them a reward or kind words when they do something good. Give them a suitable toy to keep them busy when they are alone.
– Identification: all pets must carry an identification plate with their name and telephone number of their owner, this simple action can save their life.…
