Common Signs of Fleas and Ticks in Dogs

Common Signs of Fleas and Ticks in Dogs

Fleas and ticks are common parasites that can affect dogs. Some common signs of fleas in dogs include excessive scratching, red and irritated skin, hair loss, and the presence of flea dirt (small black specks) on the dog's fur. Ticks, on the other hand, can be identified by feeling small bumps on the dog's skin, especially around the ears, neck, or between the toes. It's important to regularly check your dog for these parasites, especially after walks in wooded areas or tall grass. If you suspect your dog has fleas or ticks, consult your veterinarian for appropriate treatment and prevention.
