    Just watch the site in case of a rash. Keep an eye on Jadie for a fever. Not to worry, I bet she will be OK.

    Do you use any preventative? I use Revolution on the cats, as it covers EVERYTHING in one dose. The dogs get Frontline Plus and Interceptor (a pill). Once per month year round here.

    Zoee's had a few ticks in her life. She gets them when she's at my brothers. So I usually never have to deal with them. But this summer we had a doggie visitor and he had a tick. A BIG one, and I didn't know what to do. So I called my 13 year old niece and she walked me through it. LOL They pull them out, by the head and then burn them. But this one was so big Bruce just stepped on it and it POPPED!!
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!
