Tick Awareness

5/3/2016

 
Although the relatively cool and dry climate in Montana keeps many parasites from thriving, ticks are among the critters hardy enough to withstand long periods of cold and starvation. Unfortunately, ticks sometimes carry diseases that can cause illness or even death in both humans and pets. If you and your dog walk through brush, wooded areas, or tall grass, it’s a good idea to check them thoroughly when you get home or apply a monthly tick-prevention treatment. Cats that go outside are also vulnerable to ticks, but keep in mind that the tick-prevention you give your dog may be toxic to your cat. Check out the link below for a great article from MSU about ticks and pets.
