“TICK”, tock , “TICK”, tock – Don’t Drag your Feet on TICK prevention

What is the first word that comes to mind when you hear the term “Arachnids”?  For most, it is probably spider or maybe for those named Bill Nye the Science Guy it is something like – “Animals with an exoskeleton, segmented body, and 8 legs.”

In the pet world, we think about those heavily populated “bugs” around our woods called ticks.  Ticks, not only a nuisance, are very dangerous to both humans and pets.  Ticks, which start out the size of a period, progress quickly through their life stages by feeding on blood meals off their hosts (humans, dogs, horses, etc.)  As the tick consumes more blood, its body size swells to a size where you can see it with the naked eye.

The fact is that our staff has already seen multiple dogs with ticks attached; and, remember disease transmission can occur soon after attachment.  Although very dangerous, tick-borne infections like Lyme disease can be prevented by removing ticks from your dog with tweezers, using monthly tick preventative called Vectra 3D, and vaccinating your dog for lyme disease.  If for some reason you suspect Lyme disease in your dog (symptoms are very broad from vomiting to limping), a simple blood test is recommended.
