We are now into tick season in some parts of the world and it is important that as pet owners we know what to do. 
Some ticks carry Lyme Disease and it can transmit to dogs and even to humans. It is a serious illness and prevention is still the best way to deal with it.

As global warming get worse the ticks will be extending their ranges further north. Even if ticks were not a problem in the past, they are probably a problem now. It is good to be prepared and to learn to check pets for ticks. It is also good to check yourself and know how to remove a tick once it has started feeding.

If you can't remove the tick yourself a trained medical professional will do it for you. The first step to tick safety is to check for ticks in the first place. With the possibility of Lyme Disease it is better to be safe than sorry.
