    Preventing Ticks

    You should check your dog frequently for ticks and if you can find them before they attach is helpful.

    By cutting your grass short and keeping it so, reduces the areas for a tick to hide

    The best way to prevent ticks on your dog is to apply a tick prevention product that is specially designed for dogs. Frontline, Revolution, Advantix and bioSpot are all example of a tick prevention, that should be applied to your dog at least once a month

    Another form of prevention is the tick collar like Preventic collar.

    Do not use extra amounts of a product or apply more then one at once. Not all products work for all dogs so some trial and error may be needed until you find the one that works for your dog to keep the tick away.

    Look after your dog and prevent the ticks.
