TICKS
I'm out on the farm and there hasn't been much of a mention of it in the news (haven't found anything about it in the London, Ont. area), but the tick population has EXPLODED this year. We just pulled two off of Zack and one was swollen and huge and disgusting. The dogs are on antibiotics to prevent Lyme Disease. The last time I saw a tick around here was when I was in the 3rd grade and the teacher plucked one off the head of a kid in our class. That was in the late 70s.
It's something to be aware of if you're going camping. We've never seen ticks like this, have never had to pluck one off the dogs before (let alone, bunches of them) ... so be wary. If you spot any articles on this, forward the links.
