| Great! But I suggest you check them at least once a day with your hands/fingers... Depending on how bad it is in your area, even with Advantix the ticks will latch on. I'm having that issue where I am so I check Magnus twice a day. I really hate ticks... |

| Lucky you! If I had a choice, I'd skip walking Magnus during summer. *sigh* I found another tick last night while running my fingers through. This year just seems particularly bad. |

| I´m worried Just got home from work, walked the dogs, starting checking YT and then I notice Nena acting weird. When I turned around and saw her, she was pulling something.. I stopped her and she stood up, when she stood up I saw hair from her tail missing I always leave the hair on her tail on the same length and you can clearly see that it's not at the same length.. I'm afraid she was pulling her tail hair And I'm scared it might be the advantix! But I can't know for sure because she was in heat the last couple of weeks and most of the times when she is in head she starts biting her behind legs or starts acting weird and I have to constantly keep an eye on her.

I would try washing off the advantix first off. See if that slows or stops the chewing. The other problem you can remedy by getting Nena SPAYED

And coming here made me realize that it was the best thing to do. I've talked with my vet about it and she said to wait 3 months after Nena goes in heat in order to make an appointment and that will be this august
