PET SYMPTOMS

| ADV3 Advantage Multi for Dogs |
An
ear mite is a microscopic insect that lives in both animal and human
ears. The ear mite resembles a slight resemblance to that of a tick,
having several legs and crawls around inside the ear. The most
commonly seen species of ear mite is the Otodectes
cynotis in veterinary
medicine. The name of this species literally means ear bitter of
dogs, although, over 90 percent of ear mites infections in cats is
due to this species. These eight legged ear mites love to crawl
around the inside of the ear, feeding on oils and wax of the inner
ear which poses to be an extreme irritant to pets. The first sign a
pet owner will take note of is scratching of the ears. Pets also
exhibit, rubbing their ears across the floor, rolling about and
shaking their heads. When examining the ears, pet owners will note a
dark, coffee ground looking substance as well as a dark colored wax.
The pinna (external ear) will be swollen, red, and inflamed due to
scratching from the pet.
Fleas
attach themselves to pets in order to consume their blood. As these
tiny pests take their blood meals, the skin inflames causing pets to
itch and scratch excessively. The
dog flea; Ctenocephalides
canis, are tiny, just 1-5 mm
in size having flat bodies. Pet
owners may not be able to view the fleas themselves but will be able
to view a product known as flea dander. Flea dander appears as black
dirt within the pet’s hair, this so called dirt is in fact digested
blood defecated by the flea. Fleas not only infect the dog themselves
but act as a vector for tapeworms and bartonellosis
disease.
Parasites
cause a great deal of healthy problems to the pet as well as to
pregnant females as these worms can infect cats and dog before they
are born. Vomiting, dry textured hair, loss of weight, blood in the
stool, diarrhea, and an overall poor condition, are just a few of the
commonly seen symptoms. Internal parasites can inter the pet in a
number of ways; flea infestations, contaminated water, infected food
products, mosquitoes, and fecal contamination are all ways a cat can
become infected.
