Flea & Tick Prevention

Do you need to give your pet flea & tick prevention in the winter?

A common question this time of year is, “Do I really need to give my pet’s flea & tick prevention?” The answer is: It depends. If your pet will be traveling, spending time in a boarding facility or day care, or even visiting the dog park, he or she may be at risk for exposure to fleas or ticks even in the winter. Ask the Westgate staff if you have any questions about your pet’s parasite protection!
