Preventative Medicine

Heartworm and intestinal parasite prevention is one of the most important things that pet parents can do for their pets.

Flea and tick prevention is just as important to your health as it is to your pet’s. Fleas can lead to anemia and blood-borne infections in our pets, but they can also lead to bacterial infections in people. Ticks can cause several types of bacterial infections in our pets and in people as well.

Our preventative recommendations for our canine friends are Heartgard Plus, NextGuard, Bravecto, Simparica Trio, and Frontline Gold.

Our preventative recommendations for our feline friends are Revolution Plus, Centragard, and Frontline Gold.

King George Veterinary Clinic offers preventative care to pets in Dahlgren, Colonial Beach, Port Royal, Spotsylvania, Montross, as well as southern Maryland.
