Your dog is an adorable part of your life, and you know that fleas find him very appealing to hop onto. This makes you want to make sure you are keeping him away from their attention as much as possible. How can you combat them?

Do your best to keep your pet away from fleas, but even with all the effort in the world it is still fairly likely he will run into them at some point. This is because fleas are very common among furry friends. To prevent them from calling your pet’s fur home, make sure to have a prevention method in place. Talk to his veterinarian about different options, like sprays, shampoos, powders, and collars. There are come methods that need to be applied only once a month, and others that will need to be utilized much more regularly.
