Summary
This episode is sponsored by Elanco Animal Health Adam Christman, DVM, MBA, sits down with Lindsay Starkey, DVM, PhD, DACVM (Parasitology), on this episode of The Vet Blast Podcast, presented by dvm360 to unpack the biggest myths about parasites in dogs and cats, including why year-round prevention is non-negotiable. Throughout the episode, the duo dives into why “indoor-only” and “seasonal” thinking puts pets and families at risk, and how tapeworms and other under-the-radar parasites can signal broader health and zoonotic concerns.
