I'm on the south shore and have 3 little yorkie boys - we would love to come to a meet up. I'm pretty new to YT so still learing how this all works...but in the meantime...has anyone used the garlic powder for tick prevention? The groomer told me about it today. They are all on K9 Advantix but still get ticks (found 4 in the past few weeks) and it's just going to be worse this summer. The Advantix is expensive and really doesn't seem to work at all so I was thinking of trying the garlic powder. I would love to know if it's worked for anyone...thanks!
