Tick Tip: If you find a tick on your pet, you should remove it immediately. The longer a tick is attached to your pet, the greater the chance of spreading disease. Use tweezers and grasp as close to the skin as possible. Pull the tick’s body away from the skin. A piece of skin might be removed with the tick, and the wound will sometimes bleed. Wash the area with soap and water. NEVER try to use a liquid or ointment to make a tick release its hold – this method is ineffective and can cause the tick to release more toxins into the bite wound. We also have a nifty product that pulls the tick out easily. Come see!
