If you take your dogs or cats for a walk outdoors these days, you should check your pet after the walk to ensure they don't have any ticks. There was an instance where a family took their dog to the dog park, and then the dog had a vet appointment, and the vet found SEVEN ticks on the dog.
Luckily, the ticks in Colorado do not usually carry the Lyme Disease that is so dangerous, but in a few occasions, a tick has left an animal unable to move.
VERY important to check your pet after they have enjoyed an outdoor activity!
