How are ticks getting on my dog? - Briar Patch Veterinary Hospital
Oftentimes, it's when your dog goes outside. It can be just to go outside to the bathroom in your backyard, especially if you have deer coming through the backyard. It can be out on a hike if you're an outdoorsy adventurer, but not always. It can also be in the backyard or walking along the street where other dogs are around, which can cause exposure too. Oftentimes, we have rabbits, rodents, and other things that are coming into our urban areas, and those can also carry ticks.
