ticky

By 4/08/2009


brian and rowdy went fishing on saturday, and i am still picking ticks off of both of them like it's my job. last night i looked at brian and he had one sticking out of his neck! i've picked NINE off of rowdy just this morning.

i hate them. tick season is in full swing. make sure to check your hairy friends, including husbands.

  1. Our vet recommended switching to Frontline Plus for tick season. Then when fall/winter comes around switch back to Advantage. Be sure to keep a close eye on him because ticks in this area can carry some bad stuff with them.

  4. I'll post this anonymously, to protect the unnamed, but a certain brother of mine scared the bejesus out of my mom, squealing like a girl, all alone in the boy-campers' toilet, because he found a tick on his 11-year-old boys. Mom said that tick looked ready to pop.
    The moral of the story is guard the little soldier when you pee. Tell your hubbies.
