Rubbing my dogs ears I found a medium sized tick. I removed it and dosed both dogs and the cat with flea and tick treatment.The stuff was already in the house to give next week. Anyway it's an excuse for a pic.

We’ve been getting them now for at least a month. maybe 2 or three today. Exmoor is unfortunately plagued with them. I’ve only ever had one attached to me though thank God.

Bravecto seems to work the best, if i find one attached it’s usually dead. Advantix was next to useless.

O-Tom Tick Twisters are essential!

I have a credit card size tick tool. Means it is always with me. Did the job no bother.
