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.

I turned myself into the SPCA. They named me Hobo. My new lady owner was a volunteer dog walker. She says I was pretty banged up and confused; she thinks maybe I was hit by a car or fell out of a truck. My new gent.owner and I go walking and running everyday. He says I'm a very smart dog and I learn fast. They've been worried about me a few times though 'cause I've had seizures. My blood work and vet. check ups say I'm a healthy dog. I know they care about me so I haven't chewed up any shoes - yet, and I even eat the dry food - sometimes.
