Ticks!!!!!!!!!!

[My lil friend]

I havent seen a tick yet,we treat the yard almost every year. It didnt happen last year,but with all of the rain,we will need to do it this year. If my yard ever stops looking like a swamp.
I use Frontline plus if we are going to be out of town during a month and do searches on their lil bodies if we went somewhere during the week.

My front yard is like a swamp right now too. We are going to treat ours as soon as we can as well.

I didn't need to use frontline almost all summer and they had NO ticks at all. Lucky for me, they've never gotten fleas....

Wow. I have never heard of this. I will ask my vet. Rosie has IBS so I don't know if she could do it or not. Thank you for sharing!
