With many of us seeking outdoor adventures with our Dogs and the weather trying to warm up, it's important to protect your Dogs against Fleas. The big question is, can this be done naturally?
I don't use over the counter flea treatments on my five Dogs, the reason for this being you can prevent Fleas naturally using products we sell in the shop.
