Drugs that fight parasites – Pet tip 256
The thought of parasites makes most pet owners shudder. Just in case we’ve forgotten what they are, a parasite is an organism that lives off another animal without benefit to that animal and without killing that animal. Parasites can be classified into external (ectoparasites) and internal (endoparasites). There are many different types of these critters, from roundworms to hookworms, tapeworms to fleas and ticks. Here is an overview of some of the drugs used to kill them, and a couple of pointers that you as a conscientious pet owner might want to be aware of.

Kirby was such a loving and caring dog. Although he had a stroke 2 years ago, it did not stop him from doing things normal dogs could do. It may have taken him a little longer, but he never felt sorry for himself. I'm humbled by his zest and determination for life. "Kirby, you will truly be missed. Go run and play. Until we meet again. Have fun. We love you."
