Parasite Prevention

Preventing parasites is one of the most important responsibilities of a pet owner. We test for both internal and external parasites on nearly every routine visit for young and adult animals, and we pay particular attention to those parasites most common in the north Mississippi area. We are always hoping for negative results! Our goal is to help you choose and properly use the best prevention products for your pet. The needs of each individual patient are different, and our recommendations are based on species, age, weight, lifestyle, health status, and other individual needs of both you and your pet. We understand that a convenient and cost-effective parasite prevention program you can stick to is the best way to keep your pet healthy, and we want to help find what works best for you!
