2007 Rally & our 4-legged pals

[impumalanga]

What a great rally and great job Wayne! Was wonderful to see all the new faces and catch up with old friends.

During the rally folks were mentioning about the ticks.
Yesterday, I gave my 4-legged pal, Kelso a bath and found he not only had a few, he was infested with ticks. Not the big ones you can see but with tiny ones, almost covering his body. They are so small that even with tweezers (and my 50+ vision) are hard to pull off.

Thank goodness he has white skinned and I can find them more easily. But please, please, everyone check your pooches, these critters are nasty.

We are off to get the meds to get rid of them -- don't forget to check their bed too.
