Tropical Climate Drives Non-Stop Veterinary Calls

In Tampa, there is no off-season for parasites. Every month requires heartworm prevention, flea treatment, and tick checks. During summer, Bufo toad encounters poison dogs in backyards. During hurricane season, pet owners call about evacuation logistics, emergency supplies, and post-storm pet injuries. The phone never stops.
