A mild winter – that sounds nice, right? Less shoveling snow, more sunshine, unusually mild spring temperatures. But for our pets, a warm winter means one thing above all: tick season starts earlier – and lasts longer. For you as a responsible pet owner, this is a good time to take preventative measures – so your four-legged friend can get through spring healthy and active.
Ticks: Small but dangerous
Ticks are not only annoying, but can also transmit dangerous diseases like Lyme disease or anaplasmosis. They are particularly numerous after a mild winter – and are active at temperatures as low as 7°C. Anyone who spends a lot of time outdoors with their dog should be especially vigilant.
Important information: Lyme disease in dogs – what you should know
Yes, dogs can get Lyme disease just like humans. The infection is caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi and is transmitted through tick bites.
Possible symptoms include:
-
Fever and fatigue
-
Lameness, often alternating between the limbs
-
Joint pain and swollen joints
-
Less common: kidney damage (especially in certain breeds)
Therefore, for prevention:
-
Daily check for ticks
-
Natural tick prophylaxis such as Imun Dog Para®
-
If necessary: veterinary vaccination
A good immune system is essential – because a strong immune system helps your dog to better defend itself against infections!
Healthy animals are more resilient
A strong immune system is the best protection when your dog is active outdoors. The healthier your pet is, the better their body can respond to stressors such as parasites or pathogens. In addition to regular grooming and thorough post-walk checkups, nutrient supply also plays a key role.

Enjoy spring actively – on the road together
When the temperatures rise, we're drawn outside – and our dogs too! Hikes, playtime in the garden, or relaxing walks in the woods: exercise is good for you, makes you happy, and strengthens bonds. To ensure you can enjoy this precious time without worry, preventative protection against ticks is invaluable.
5 tips for a healthy and safe spring with your dog

Regular coat checks – especially after trips through tall grass
-
Good nutrition – strengthens the immune system from within
-
Imun Dog Para® as natural support – best started at the beginning of the season

Conclusion: Running around outside? Sure! But with the right protection
While a mild winter brings pleasant temperatures, it also extends the season for ticks and other parasites. With good preparation and natural support, you can ensure your dog starts the warmer season fit, healthy, and full of zest for life.
For healthy pets. For an active life together. For a better tomorrow.
