Itchin' for Spring?


With three feet of snow still on the ground in Southern Maine, it's hard to believe that Spring is here. Though the daffodils aren't popping up quite yet, there is still one sure sign that warmer weather is on the way...just ask your dog....it's flea and tick season!

Fleas and tics have been patiently waiting to reacquaint themselves with your digging pup. They won't wait for your garden to be planted or for the salt to be washed off your car to act! So, just a friendly reminder, if you haven't been doing so all winter, to protect your dog against these nasty little signs of Spring.

We're recommending Bi-Spoto as a great flea and tic preventative medicine. Similar to "Frontline" in the way it's used, BioSpot is often less expensive and works just as great. You can find BioSpot at most Agway stores here locally, or purchase it on-line without a prescription.

No matter which flea treatment you use, remember to read the label carefully to protect your pet, and then get out there and enjoy the great outdoors!
