| Not necessarily they can come in on things and people just like every other bug. I think it would not be fun for a dog to never be aloud to run around and play outside.

| I'm sorry I didn't see this until just now. This is one of the major reasons why I love this board so much. Chewie had a vet that gave her the major whopping like "all in one" vaccine along with the rabies. I get that dogs and humans are different, however, I have a slight allergy to vaccines- one in particular, and my son had a very MAJOR allergic reaction. Unfortunately he's not the same. So, thanks to this board, last year they were honest and also supportive in telling me that it was dangerous. Ever since any vaccines she's given are separate and I always give her benadryl. It gives me peace of mind. |

| Not so, when I lived in NY, the city, not the country, sitting on my sofa, I went to scratch the back of my neck, felt something, ran down to my landlady, asked her to look at my neck, it was a TICK, she removed it. So YES, ticks can get in the house, either by dog, or one falling on you, and you carry it in the house.

| My vet stopped giving my now passed girl DAP vaccine when she was 9 years old, talk about vets pushing unneeded vaccines just for the buck.

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Unless you live in a hyperbaric house , bugs from the outdoors also come indoors...spiders, roaches, ants, flies, ticks, scorpions, gnats, fleas. A tick could come inside on *your* shoe, or your body. So I don't know what you mean by stretching it. Pretty sure that it's easy to find bugs inside of any house. Save

| As I stated, at that time I lived in the CITY, no "woods" no "grass", a couple of tress lined the street, that tick could have fallen from a tree onto one of my dogs or onto myself, this was back in the 90's, they didn't even have a Lyme vaccine at that time. Since that experience I educated my self on ticks, and I am grateful there is now a vaccine to help. But like you told Lovetodream88 “YOUR dog, and YOU can do what YOU like for YOUR dog. To think ticks can only be gotten if you go into the woods or grass, I think you better do more research on ticks.

However, this is just unsafe and untrue information you're putting out there - and that's not beneficial to anyone. Just because your sample size of "many dog owners" hasn't experienced a tick while inside of a building (?!), it does *not* equate to being a fact that it just doesn't happen. For anyone reading this thread - PLEASE be sure that bugs, pollens, microscopic germs - whatever - CAN and DOES get inside your house. In addition, your dog doesn't have to be in "the woods or on grass" to encounter a tick.

| Just so you know I have been to a cemetery every single day for three years where there is grass, a pond etc... NEVER had a tick ever. Just check your dog simple. And I resent you saying because I am different and don't agree with some on here but I see some agreeing with me. And I don't give false information. These are my experiences. To each his own. |
