Took my two younger guys (the boxers, Diva and Mack) for a walk out into the country this week, and without realizing it brought some unexpected company into the house with us.....
My male boxer is a pretty cool guy, he stays next to you and walks on the asphalt, but my female is the opposite. She is as curious as a cat. She has to go into the longer grass along side the road and just sniff at everything. Her curiosity does not come without a price. She became the transport unit for 7 ticks.
Fortunately my son is not as squeamish as I am when it comes to removing the pesky little critters. And both my dogs have their Lyme's disease vaccines. So not to worry!
But if this is any indication of things to come, better keep the Frontline or Advantix handy....!
