Common Dog and Cat Parasites & Diseases
Dogs and cats are likely to become infected with parasites at some point in their lives.
If left undetected and untreated, they will affect your pet’s well-being, from simply being irritating to causing a variety of life-threatening conditions.

HOW DO PETS GET THESE WORMS?
When the infected mosquito bites another dog, the mosquito spreads the infective larvae to your dog through the bite wound.
It takes about 6 to 7 months for the infective larvae to mature into adult heartworms.
