:floor: I literally sleep with a dog, in particular, a standard poodle, as well as with my sweet husband.:wub:
The topic of this thread relates to a funny story. When I was at the beach two weeks ago, I noticed a tiny deer tick on me. Because it was embedded, I went to a clinic in SoWal to get a prescription for Minocycline. The physician's assistant asked what was wrong. When I started out by saying, "I sleep with a dog," we both started laughing. I told him I wasn't referring to my husband and that I literally sleep with a dog; he said, "That's okay. I've slept with a few dogs myself." The jokes kept rolling, such as when I said, "It's been ten years since I've slept with a dog because the last one slept in the dog house outside.":funn:
Seriously, the dog groomer said that ticks are really bad this year, even for dogs on Frontline. So if you sleep with a dog, check yourself frequently for ticks.
Just out of curiosity, how many of you sleep with a dog?😀

Were they dog ticks? I don't think I could have seen them if they were deer ticks. They are so small that the one that bit me was on my hand for a few days. I just thought it was a little age spot or a tiny scab from my poodle's rough play (she likes to box and pretend-bite, but sometimes she accidentally nips me).
These probably were dog ticks. They were easily visible. Ticks totally creep me out.

Nothing cute about them Skunky. I checked the sheets last night before going to bed to make sure there were none in the bed. Luckily there weren't. It's a shame we cannot even step outside without having one on us after coming back in. EEW! But I'll be glad to send a few your way Skunky. :floor:
