🐛 Is something crawling there? How to tell if your pet has unwanted roommates
There are few things as unpleasant as the thought that our beloved pet might be infested with unwanted guests like worms or parasites. 🐛 Parasites like worms, fleas, or ticks are not only unpleasant for animals, but can also lead to health problems that are best detected early.
How do you know if your pet is struggling with parasites?
-
Changes in coat: Sudden hair loss or dull, shaggy coat can be signs of parasites or poor health.
-
Behavioral changes: If your dog suddenly starts scratching, licking, or licking places he doesn't normally lick more often, this could be a sign of parasites.
-
Emaciated or overly hungry: Worms deprive the body of nutrients, which can cause your pet to lose weight despite normal food intake or even eat more than usual.
-
Diarrhea or vomiting: These symptoms may indicate a parasite infestation or a digestive disorder.
What can you do?
-
Regular checks: Look for signs of parasites, especially after walks or during grooming. Ticks and fleas are visible, but worms are less so – regular deworming can be helpful in these cases.
-
Feeding and prevention: There are preventative measures that can help keep your pet free of parasites. These include nutritional supplements like Wurmerli Drops, which naturally support your pet's well-being and help maintain the body's natural balance.
-
Household hygiene: Make sure you regularly clean your pet's living space to prevent the spread of parasites.
Remember: prevention is the best protection. You can do your pet a lot of good by maintaining good hygiene and regularly checking for parasites. If you're unsure, don't hesitate to consult your veterinarian. 🐾
