Pet's info: Dog | Miniature Schnauzer | Male | unneutered | 3 years and 2 months old
Hi, we got our puppy this past Sunday and I noticed a flea. Archie is a 9 week old Miniature Schnauzer. What should we do? Thanks in advance.

Hi there. Archie is very cute! He's old enough to be started on a prescription flea medication like Nexgard, so I would recommend taking him in for a check-up with your veterinarian. He/she can prescribe an appropriate flea treatment for him to get rid of the fleas and make sure he doesn't pick up any more.
