Bleugh, ticks! I've only ever had to remove one tick before and that was when I worked at the vets - it was on someones cat. Horrible little thing!! The O Tom thing was amazing!! Luckily I've never encountered one on my dogs - I think I'd have screaming abdabs!!  :005: ph34r

I was the same - had the screaming abdabs the first time I had to remove one on my own and now I get a real sense of satisfaction of getting them off and then popping the little sods- I think I must be odd!!

I leave the tick-taking-off to OH- and we have LOADS here.

We don't have that O Tom thing here. Checked online- they don't even ship it to our parts  >:( but I have mailed the O Tom company- will be a good product to have here.

I think we may have the SAS of ticks here in Dorset ....... a few hardy ones have been about all winter  :fear2:  (living down rabbit holes probably because it's Livie that manages to collect them  :-\ )
If your dog thinks you're the best.....don't seek a second opinion!!
