According to a Wall Street Journal article published this week on Monday ticks are really bad this summer for humans.\u00a0 Fordham University\u2019s tick index is at a 9 out of 10 \u2013 a high risk time for humans.\u00a0 And the CDC\u2019s tick bite tracker has 2025 as the highest year since 2019 for ER visits for tick bites.\u00a0 So if ticks are bad for humans, they must be bad for dogs, right? But if you follow the weekly Vetsource Veterinary Industry data, seems like the flea and tick product dispensing is down every week this year.\u00a0 According to Vetsource, the canine purchasing patients per practice is down about 7% YOY (TTM through June) and the months of protection dispensed are down 10% YOY for the same period.\u00a0 So, big tick year, but slow sales of parasiticides through veterinary clinics.\u00a0 What\u2019s happening? Are some pet owners moving to OTC channels to purchase their flea and tick preventatives?\u00a0 Are some pet owners just not purchasing this year?\u00a0 We will find out soon. Robert Jones"}
