TICKS… prevention beyond medication
TICKS. Everyone is talking about TICKS.
Does it seem like there are more of them this year?
YES! Ticks are everywhere, even the dogs who only go on sidewalk walks are getting ticks. The monthly tick/flea medication is great and only works if ticks bite your fur baby but it does not deter them from coming onto their fur and into our homes, sofa and bed! Oh yuk! It is safe to say that we should do everything we can to protect our dogs from these awful pests.

DIY Paw Sanitizer with essential oil every pet owner needs!
I know many sanitizers use alcohol for the DIY recipe and it is super effective in getting rid of germs. But having a son who has sensitive skin, I opt out for Witch Hazel (without alcohol) as alcohol dries out the skin quicker. Adding aloe vera juice and vitamin E oil keeps our hands nice and moist as well!
