Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Why Winter Doesn’t Mean 0% Fleas, Ticks, or Heartworm | SOP ep. 133 - Dr. Lindsay Starkey
Q: If someone spots a tick on their pet, does that mean the preventive isn't working?
No. Many products kill the tick after attachment; the tick may still be on the animal but is being killed post-attachment, so seeing a tick doesn't automatically indicate the product is ineffective.
Why Winter Doesn’t Mean 0% Fleas, Ticks, or Heartworm | SOP ep. 133 - Dr. Lindsay Starkey
Q: Why is year-round protection important, even in milder seasons?
Tick and heartworm risk persists year-round, and warmer spells in winter or unseasonably warm days can trigger tick activity; quarterly or monthly preventives are designed to work continuously, so a gap can allow infections to take hold.
Your Dog’s Groomer Notices Problems Before Your Vet Does | SOP ep. 131 - Shawna Van Loon
Q: How do you handle dogs that don't like their face or feet touched?
Shawna discusses training, gradual desensitization, and using calm handling strategies to minimize stress and safely complete grooming.
Your Dog’s Groomer Notices Problems Before Your Vet Does | SOP ep. 131 - Shawna Van Loon
Q: What should I look for in my dog's coat or skin that could be alarming?
She highlights lumps, redness, hot spots, flaky skin, and moisture issues as red flags that should prompt a vet visit or further assessment.
Your Dog’s Groomer Notices Problems Before Your Vet Does | SOP ep. 131 - Shawna Van Loon
Q: Shawna, how did you get into this?
Shawna explains her journey from helping a friend who was a groomer to falling in love with grooming while in school, which led to it blossoming into a full-time career.
