Have both your dogs and cats on flea/ tick and heartworm prevention (preferably prescription or reputable products) year round. I can’t tell you how often I tell people that and don’t understand the dangers of heartworm disease and tick borne disease. Not to mention it’s gross having bugs crawling on your pets, and potential for secondary flea allergy dermatitis. Budget appropriately for prevention when you get an animal please.
