In Israel, the weather is getting warmer and ticks are becoming more rampant. So preventive procedures are necessary. Tick collars are very useful, and also make sure to check your dog daily looking behind ears, around eyes, between the pads of the feet, and in fact all over the dog. Some ticks carry the deadly ehrlichiosis desease

So now spring is here take extra care.
