My dog officially has ticks. -_-'''
And for the first time since I brought her home in April 1996, I had to turn her over with Mee and pull big, fat ticks off her hairy behind. Grossness x 1,438,295.
Anyway, this was what we ripped off her today.
The grey ones are HUGE! No kidding!
Here's a close-up so you don't have to squint.
Yuck.
In all seriousness, those grey ones
are about the size of a raisin. EACH.
are about the size of a raisin. EACH.
(Blergh. I don't think I can ever
swallow another raisin after this. -_-)
25 ticks in total.
Don't they look all nice and juicy? So very plump, duncha think? Well, that's cos they've been very well-fed with my dog's blood. -_-' See, this is why dogs should never have doggy friends next door. No more running over to the neighbour's place, no more let's-bump-wet-noses nonsense, and no more I-smell-you-you-smell-me business. No more! From now on, my dog is grounded!

Have you tried popping them with a lighter?
Didn't really notice the ticks in the first photo... only the big rock on your finger!

- Aiyerrr!! Sure the blood spray everywhere right?? Yuck. Last time you all did that with Champ ah?
And liddat also you can see the rock?? White on white liao wor. Maybe should increase bokeh. Haha.
Oh! Let me ask what's the best solution. ALM (let's call u know who with that) used to own a pet shop. ;) BRB hehehe
Ugh. I hate ticks. Makes my skin crawl. >.<
ATTN: yapthomas
– Hahaha. Okay! Let me know!
ATTN: Lissa
– It's their legs. That's what's really gross. And the fact that they're fat. Like really really FAT.
how in the world did Princess get SO MANY DIFFERENT TYPES of ticks?!
The big ones are females, the little red ones are males. >.<
Try frontline (the concentrated version) or tac tic (which is sold in little brown bottles with red cap). so far these are the best to get rid of ticks. frontline should be used for prevention.
This is from ALM.

– 1 type only. Like Lissa said, they look different cos they're males and females.
ATTN: Lissa
– The male ones feed on the females for blood after they get extracted from the dog, you know?
ATTN: yapthomas
– That's what we're using!
Eeee Geli! *goosebumps!*
Reeeeeally? x.x Gross-ness.
Don't remember where I got the idea from... probably from Steven Ko-Ko.
Why need to increase bokeh? Should post a close-up! I'm sure Jiso would like a closer look :)

– Be a man! Do the right thing! =p
ATTN: Lissa
– Hahaha. Yup! Don't let the blood go to waste, I suppose. =p
ATTN: Terence Song
