| a little worried and needing some advice... Hi everyone I'm a little worried because just a few days ago I was giving Coco a bath and I noticed that right under his jaw, just a little higher than his neck he has a big bump. It's not visible but I just feel it. Do you guys have any idea of what this could be or has anyone experienced this? Please let me know because I'm extremely worried... Thank you -Maria |

| I was at my parents house (north of NYC) and they have a few acres of woods and when we were inside we noticed a "scab" on Bandit which turned out to be a tick!! Thank goodness my dad still had his magnifying glass and tweezers and he got the sucker out (it was a dog tick so much easier than a deer tick). However, when we got home to MD we found another one because I gave them a bath as soon as we got home. THe vet said this is probably because there's a huge tick population there and it was the very end of their frontline cycle. |
