From forests and fields to friendly neighborhood footpaths, North Bay’s great outdoors offer endless adventures for curious canines. But along those scenic trails and grassy spaces lurks a tiny, troublesome hitchhiker: the tick. At Parkside Animal Hospital, your trusted North Bay veterinarian, we believe that a little preparation and prevention can go a long way toward keeping dogs safe, healthy, and happily exploring.

Springtime in Ontario means warmer days, blooming flowers, and, unfortunately, the return of tick season. These tiny pests can cause big problems for your furry friends, but with a bit of preparation and guidance from your trusted North Bay veterinarian at Parkside Animal Hospital, you can keep ticks off pets and ensure a safe and happy season for all.
