Four ticks on the Chester Creek dog. She's a Frontliner. Aggressive ticks, I guess.

I suspect the ticks are going to be resistant to Frontline very soon...sad...

I farm-sat for some people once who had this really stupid giant black Doberman, no offense to any owners of this breed, it was a sweet dog, just dumb as a peanut.  One morning after feeding the animals, I discovered a large swollen wood tick on her anterior sphincter muscle.  Once the thing had established its presence in my mind, on her asshole, I knew what I had to do, and that right soon. But all I could find in the way of a tool was a hole puncher.  I hip locked her between my legs, and I think some manner of white tick puss hit me in the eye as it screamed, but I chopped that fucker in half anyway because a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do. Rubbed some ointment on there and away she went, happy as a clam. I saved her on that day I can tell you. No mercy for the ticks.

Ahhhhhh!!!! Was I complaining that the RSS feed wasn't showing me every comment? After reading Paul's, I think I prefer it broken!
