There are many types of bacteria, viruses and parasites that are carried in dog waste. Roundworms, a group of parasites, can result in blindness in children and can also be transmitted to adults. Roundworms develop in approximately 14 days in dog waste and their eggs can live from months to years in a yard.
Weekly service from Dr. Doo can help to prevent the spread of diseases such as roundworm. We are not veterinarians, but if we notice anything unusual in your dog's waste, we will notify you so you can ensure that your dog stays healthy and happy.
We care about your dog's health, so to prevent the spread of any disease we disinfect all our scooping tools and shoes after every stop.
Dog waste ruins the appearance of your property, attracts disease-carrying pests, pollutes ground water sources, smells bad and offends the neighbors and can endanger the health of your pets and your family.
