If you have a pet that spends most of it’s time outdoors, please check them
regularly for any signs of illness or injury. Any type of wound or hot spots that
may not be clearly obvious can change quickly and can become infected. Any
wound that bleeds or contains pus and smells, can attract flies. Being outdoors
with an open wound means your pet is exposed to flies and in turn, maggots,
which will happily eat their way through your animals body, causing discomfort,
illness and possibly death. This typically is more of a concern in warmer weather
and warm climates, but can occur any time of year, especially if animals are
being neglected and not examined regularly. Be a responsible pet owner!
