Hiking with your dog is a fun adventure; however on the trail you and your dog might run into ticks and other parasites. For this reason, you should take a few precautions: as a daily routine, check your dog if he got any bugs. It is important to take these parasites off as soon as possible in order to avoid the transmission of diseases.

To take a tick off from your dog you need a pair of tweezers: grab the tick’s head and pull outward with a steady motion ad be careful to remove it completely. Do not try to lubricate the tick with alcohol or similar products because it may worsen the situation and your dog could get infected.
