Help protect your cat or dog’s skin, coat, paws, eyes and ears this fall with practical seasonal pet-care tips from Feeds’n Needs. As summer gives way to cooler days, wet weather and more time indoors, your pet’s care routine may need a seasonal refresh.
Preparing raised garden beds for winter does more than make the yard look tidy. It protects valuable soil, reduces potential pest and disease problems and creates better conditions for spring planting. Atlantic Canadian weather can be hard on exposed gardens, but removing diseased plants, adding finished compost, protecting bare soil and properly storing garden equipment can help your raised beds handle the months ahead. Strategic deworming, accurate dosing, recordkeeping and responsible pasture management can help protect horse health while preserving the effectiveness of available products.
As summer show schedules slow down and horses transition from pasture to winter routines, fall is an important time to review your parasite-control program. Fall parasite control is not about automatically reaching for the same dewormer used last year. It is about considering the horse in front of you, identifying its risk factors and making informed decisions with your veterinarian. Strategic deworming, accurate dosing, recordkeeping and responsible pasture management can help protect horse health while preserving the effectiveness of available products. Once your veterinarian recommends an appropriate product, visit your local Feeds’n Needs for select equine dewormers, weight tapes, manure forks, buckets, stable-cleaning tools and other supplies that support responsible fall horse care. Product selection varies by location.
A clean feeder, high-energy wild bird seed, fresh water and safe shelter can make your backyard a valuable stopover for fall migratory birds.
