Tick bites spike nationwide, experts say pets are usually the gateway

Tick bites are rising across the U.S., with veterinarians noting that most cases begin with pets that pick up ticks outdoors and bring them indoors. Warmer, more humid conditions are boosting tick activity, highlighting the need for pet preventive care, regular tick checks, and prompt treatment for tick-related illnesses in both people and animals, including in areas like Asheville and western North Carolina.

Screwworm Invades Pets: What Texas Owners Need to Know

Screwworm Invades Pets: What Texas Owners Need to Know

Seven New World screwworm cases have been confirmed in the region, including a Texas dog, prompting containment efforts and warnings for pet owners. The parasite can infest any warm-blooded animal through open wounds or natural openings, causing pain and tissue damage; early vet treatment—larvae removal followed by larvicides/insecticides—yields the best outcomes. Daily wound checks, fly control, and quick veterinary contact are key to protecting pets, especially near the border or during travel; while not highly contagious between pets, households with multiple animals should monitor all wounds and report sightings of wildlife or stray animals.

The hidden side of pet ownership: when companionship comes with stress

Pet ownership brings companionship and improved well-being, but it also carries notable stressors—separation anxiety when away from pets, financial and caregiving burdens, vet visits, and disenfranchised grief after a pet’s death. Experts underscore validating owners’ feelings and suggest practical support like flexible work options, social backing, and self-compassion to help balance the joys of pet companionship with its challenges.

Is My Pet Allergic? A Vet-Guided Guide to Pet Allergies

Is My Pet Allergic? A Vet-Guided Guide to Pet Allergies

Pets can suffer seasonal or environmental allergies, typically manifesting as itchy skin and hot spots rather than human-like sneezing; diagnosis starts by ruling out infections, mites, and fleas, since many itchy pets aren’t allergic. At-home tests advertised for pets are unreliable, and a veterinary dermatologist may perform intradermal skin testing to identify culprits. Treatments range from anti-itch medication and shampoos to new targeted drugs; allergen-specific immunotherapy can desensitize the immune system but costs about £1,000 ($1,300) and may take a year, with possible side effects. Keeping a diary of symptoms, noting seasonal patterns, and considering lifestyle changes can help identify triggers. Advances in therapy may shorten the timeline in the future.
