During the summer and spring months, when the tick activity increases, our four-legged friends become real victims of these microscopic but dangerous parasites. It is worth knowing how they affect dogs and how to protect your pet from tick bites.
Ticks are arachnids that live in grass, bushes and forest areas. They attach themselves to the skin of animals in order to suck blood, which can cause a number of health problems.
A tick bite can have serious consequences for a dog. First, they can transmit infections such as borreliosis and ehrlichiosis. In addition, the effect of the tick on the immune system can cause allergic reactions.
Ticks will like exposed areas of the body, such as ears, neck and armpits. To detect them, check your dog's coat and skin regularly, especially after walks in the woods or grassy areas.
After a tick bite, the skin may feel itchy, irritated, and swollen. If the tick manages to stay on the body for a long time, it can cause infections, swelling, as well as the transmission of additional diseases.
Correct and immediate removal of the tick is the key to preventing further complications. Use special tick tweezers or tools, carefully grasp the tick by the head, and slowly remove it without squeezing the body.
Use tick and flea products approved by your veterinarian. It may be helpful to use collars or drops to provide long-term protection.
If you notice a tick bite or signs of distress in your dog, consult your veterinarian. Timely diagnosis and treatment will help to avoid further complications.
Even the most careful owners cannot always avoid tick bites. It is important to study your pet, monitor its condition and respond in time to any suspicious symptoms. Provide your dog with effective prevention and timely treatment to preserve his health and joy of life.
