I want to bring something extremely important to all pet owners and their humans.
I was recently made aware of my friend and fellow sax players’ health battle with Lyme disease which is having a catastrophic effect on his life. Please check out his Go Fund Me page here: https://gofund.me/b850d4104
The disease comes from ticks and causes a devastating and debilitating disease in humans, but also dogs can catch it too.
As a dog groomer, I see ticks attached to dogs from time to time, and I think it is in everyone’s interest to read up on Lyme disease and regularly check your dogs/cats.
Here’s a good place to start: https://veteris.co.uk/petcare-advice/lyme-disease-in-dogs
Video below is from today in the salon, a live tick that I managed to successfully remove intact from a dogs’ tail. Absolutely horrid parasite that serves no purpose in life, causing misery to all. Please do your research and stay safe!!
