Parasite Control for Pets on the South Shore
To make sure your pet's health remains in check, you must control any parasites it could possibly have. On the South Shore, entrust your cat or dog to the experienced team at Taschereau Veterinarian Hospital in Greenfield Park. We can even advise you on how to administer effective care at home, such as giving shots and any other preventive care that might be needed.
