He tested positive for Lymes back in late December when he began limping and holding his back hind leg. I'm sure it was a tick from the beginning of last summer that he got, the vet said it can take months to show up. He got put on a 30 day antibiotic and he's good now.  Maryland is really tick infested. | I was wondering what was a good preventative for ticks...the Advantage was just given to me and I used my last dosage this month so I'm shopping for something different. Will definitely look at the Advantix...ticks are awful here in Oklahoma as well. Especially near our house...we've got a large field near by and our danged next door neighbor feeds the deer. Totally does not help the situation!!
