CAPC - Parasite Control
Parasite control is important for both pets and people. Our doctors and staff adhere to best practices to safeguard the health of our clients, patients, and the community at large. The Companion Animal Parasite Council (CAPC) has established guidelines for the optimal control of internal and external parasites that threaten the health of pets and people. Their website contains a wealth of information for pet owners. Check it out!
