I noticed those ticks in the muffin right away.
So far this week, I have picked off two ticks from one of my dogs. One tick was on top of her head and the other one was in her ear....long droopy ears.
My dogs do not go into the woods or high grass or weeds. We walk along the street and visit a nice grassy area that is mowed. The ticks are really bad this year. My dogs have front line and i just ordered " bug collars" for them.
i check them for ticks every time they go outside. I check myself too.
i live in PA where we have an extremely high rate of Lyme disease. I know many people who have it..including my nephew and my neighbors daughter.
