Hello Sassy Pup family. With the past winter being a record breaker for mild temps, we are looking at a spring and summer filled with more than the normal amount of fleas and ticks. I have already found many ticks on clients and they can do more than gross is out and irritate our pets. They can spread disease and invade our homes (leading to lengthy and costly measures of eradication).
So how do you keep your pets and family safe this year? First off keep your pets on a monthly flea and tick preventative and heartworm medicine. Second check your pet over for little creatures, especially after walking through areas with long grass or dense brush. Third, find other ways to add protection.
My favorite products are shown in these photos. makes amazing products to protect your pet, family and yard. The yard spray is amazing, you can just hook it to your hose and spray your yard, it gets rid of fleas and ticks but doesn't hurt bees and other pollinators! Their smaller bottle is great for spraying on you or your dog for some added protection, it's even safe for pregnant people (just make sure you use a hand to cover Fido's eyes while spraying them).
If your pup has already gotten some bites or has those pesky spring/summer skin allergies Epi-pet skin tonic and enrichment spray is a miracle at calming irritation and itching.
These are all products I've used for years and seen work wonders, and while this is not a paid endorsement, I wholeheartedly stand behind these brands and their ingredients. They are safe, they work and they are environmentally friendly. So stay safe and pest free this season!
Xoxo- Marian
