Flea and Tick Prevention 🕷️

During the warmer months, it’s important to check your dogs and cats, especially around the head, neck, and paws for ticks after each walk that takes you off the well-travelled path (i.e tall grass, sandy beaches, bushes, forest area).

Preventative measures such as a monthly chewable or topical solution applied to the skin can be implemented to keep your pet safe. Speak with your veterinarian to discuss preventative measures.

➡️Other preventative measures include keeping your yard clear of debris, leaves, brush, and weeds.
➡️Remove ticks immediately to prevent the spread of disease.
➡️If you suspect your pet has been bit by a tick or you find a tick on your pet, contact your veterinarian immediately and remove the tick as soon as possible to prevent the spread of disease.

Remember it is important not to crush or damage the tick when removing it.

We have heard updates that the swan is doing well and will be released to a sanctuary. Thank you to everyone involved including the Trumpeter Swan Conservation Ontario (TSCO) for alerting our Animal Services team about their concerns for this beautiful animal.
