dammit
We found a tick on Belle tonight. the first one EVER. It was fairly new... was a little swollen but not huge. we think she may have gotten it today.
But when we went to get it off we used a burning ember...although now I hear that isn't a great idea... but it seems it was actually already dead and when we pulled it off there was no blood inside. At least no blood showed up on the paper towel we pulled it out with.
so... what now?
belle goes to the vet on Wednesday so should we tell th em to check her out?
I've never had a tick on one of our dogs before
