Tick-borne diseases are scary, but what is even scarier is how many pet parents have been told these flea/tick chemicals are completely safe. Adverse reports from these products (Trifexis, NexGard, Bravecto, Credelio, Simparica Trio) are especially alarming since it's estimated only 1% of adverse reactions are reported.

The first step is to understand your pets risk.
- What does a tick bite look like?
- Which tick species are important to know?
- What diseases can ticks transmit to dogs and cats?

From there, it is important to find safer alternatives that prevent tick-borne diseases! There are many options to choose from.

Great Info about what to use, in the comment thread..

There are many variables that come into play when deciding if heartworm preventative is necessary for your pet—location, temperature, humidity. While it may not be possible in all environments to have our pets prevention be completely chemical-free, I don't use injectable heartworm prevention.

Long-acting injections may seem convenient, but once given, there is NO antidote to reverse side effects which may include the following adverse reactions: anaphylaxis, vomiting, diarrhea (with and without blood), listlessness, weight loss, seizures, and death.

Monday kicks off Parasite Awareness Week (April 17-21), so I'll be hosting daily, educational livestreams about naturally preventing and managing fleas, ticks, heartworms, intestinal parasites and mites/mange. You can tune in Monday-Friday at 3:00pm EDT on Facebook, YouTube, or Instagram.

There is a wealth of knowledge and nutritional education in this video, that loving pet owners can apply to extend their dog's lives.
Please watch.
DEER HUNTERS going out in the field right now can harvest the very valuable organ meats, heart and liver, etc, to support your dog's nutrition and life.
Please absorb the information you can from this video, about what additives to avoid in your choice of dog food, and what ingredients you can add from your own kitchen, to support and extend the life of your dog (without buying any product, as we are all going through hard economics right now, but this nutritional knowledge is priceless).
After 45 years of breeding Shelties, there are certain ingredients I have come to
add, pro and pre biotics, meat, veggies, fruit, omega's, eggs from my chickens, and avoiding excessive vaccinations and the chemical flea and tick products, that have kept my Shelties cancer free for decades. I am delighted that this video supports my same nutritional research. Do what you can, and what you can afford to in your own kitchen, to support your dog's life and health.
Blessings to you and the 4-legged love of your life. 🍀🌹🍀

While we are taking a break from participating at the MN State Fair this year (our 38th year with MPDBA), I wanted to share this photo, which says it all:
Why we continue to raise Shelties after over 40 year's...
As I was certified as a Nursing Assistant back in 1981, one just can't deny the healing aspect that this incredible breed contributes to our lives. Equally important, to both canine and partner.. 💖🍀🌹
