We found another today too. Not engorged this time, but still annoys and worries us every time.
This is the 4th since November. He's already got Lyme though, and is being treated. He had it when we adopted him.

Once you have lyme and your are treated to health, are you then immune to lyme from then on?

No. Re-infection can occur.

Get some preventative going. Seresto went on my guy on the weekend. Mild temps and he spends a lot of time outdoors.

Where do you guys get your Seresto? My vet is against it. My girlfriend is against it because my vet is against it. So Calvin is on Brevecto. But I feel like the collar is a better method. Right or wrong?

To answer that you really need someone who has used both. Otherwise, it's like asking which breed is best: "mine."

The Seresto collar is not available in Canada. I assume one has to cross the border to buy it or maybe there is an American company that can ship it to you. I don't know. I'd be interested in knowing why your vet was against the collar?

My vet is against it merely because Canada is against it. I don't like that reason.

We just had our mutt to the vet. He's on Rev and we told him we are concerned about ticks, specifically lyme he told us there is a "new" vaccine for lyme. We had ours vaccinated. The fact that this hasn't come up in your conversation kinda worries me.... Anyone else heard about a lyme vaccine?
Heeere fishy fishy fishy fishy! :fish:

I don't know that Canada is against it, just hasn't been approved for sale yet. It looks like it's a slow release collar version of Advantix. When it is approved in Canada it will cost more here. Like cars, clothes, shoes, food etc. For some reason American companies figure they can charge more in Canada than they do in the States. They must figure the average Canadian is better off than the average American?
