Let's talk about ticks!
In the last two days I have removed over 100 ticks from Orlaith and Chugs. Most crawling but some also attached. Walking in the woods I have seen multiple ticks on a single blade of grass just waiting for a victim. Chuggy and Orlaith have monthly tablets which kill ticks that bite them but do not prevent them from attaching. Today I sprayed them with cedarcide in an attempt to dissuade the ticks but have still been removing ticks all evening, over 50! They are everywhere in parks, woods, fields and there is nothing I can do to prevent them. I do check your dogs before I return them to you but ticks have been appearing for hours afterwards and even the next morning. This year so far has been the worst I've known. Just wanted to keep you informed.
