Little Nasties on Dogs

TICKS
Not as common as the fleas, pets can get ticks even if they live in the community. Grown-up ticks live on the host drawing the blood, then drop off and also lay their eggs.
You might well not discover the tick to start with and it is just when the tick starts to expand that you will see a wart-like swelling on the pet dog, which can grow up to 1 centimeters as it engorges with blood. Your veterinarian can get rid of the whole tick securely.
LICE
Much less common than either the flea or the Tick, lice can infest the run down or roaming pet dog. There are two types-those which attack, опитай го and feed off dead skin and sucking lice which feed from the blood of the canine. Flea avoidance methods and also items should likewise stop lice.
STINGS
Bee and also Wasp stings can trigger the same reaction in dogs as they perform in human beings. A lot more frequently it is young puppies that are attracted by the motion as well as buzzing sound as well as either try to sniff at them or capture them in their mouths. Either activity can lead to the young puppy being stung. If hurt in the mouth, head or neck area, seek veterinary aid as the area will certainly swell as well as can compromise the pet dogs breathing.
I bear in mind when living in South Africa my young pug was playing on the lawn outside the residence. I after that bore in mind one of my James Herriot's publications where he had talked concerning a boxer that had actually been hurt by a BEE. I quickly investigated around my pugs head region as well as sure adequate I actually found the sting on his lip.
You need to be able to treat the sting yourself. Wash the area with vinegar for a wasp sting or with bicarbonate of soda for a Bee sting.
