Tip of the Week

Flea season arrives with spring each year, and dog owners need to be ready to deal with this pest. Talk with your veterinarian for safe, effective flea control. This is important both for the health of your dog and often for the health of family members. Both can suffer from flea bites.

* When fleas are biting and you canīt get to the store right away, sprinkle some salt on your petīs bedding -- this is where the fleas are infested -- and also on carpets and chairs. The flea problem will be reduced.
