My beloved keeshond Oliver, who passed away this winter -
snowshoeing at Abbey Pond in VT:
On his way up Waumbek:
Ollie was a funny little guy - loved hiking, but hated to get his feet wet. His solution was to train my friend Trish to carry him over water crossings
This is one of those magic shots where you can learn a whole lot about the subject just from one picture.
You got me, that was my pin up shot when I was campaining for Mr. New Hampshire (I'm in the forground)That Dentists should never consciously attempt to strike a seductive pose ?
Don't you guys have a lot of problems with ticks on the dogs?
Lauky gets a monthly dose of Frontline Plus and with that I see very few ticks on him, and what I do see are usually dead.
Yeah, what he said. I pull more off me than off the three dogs in the house.
+2. K9 advantix for the husky (also repels mosquitos), and frontline for the sheltie as he spends time in close company with the cats (FYI: Advantix is toxic to felines) Haven't seen a tick on either one in as long as I can remember.Yeah, what he said. I pull more off me than off the three dogs in the house.
Which kind of begs the question: Why hasn't someone marketed a Frontline for people?
There is a vaccine, at least there was. I'm not sure it's being recommended much as the risks of the vaccine may be greater than the risk of Lyme.
No one suffering from Lyme would agree with me, they'd probably gladly have taken the vaccine, but the risk of getting the disease is relatively small and normal precautions are available if you think you'll need them.
