I'm A Tick Magnet

It was an adventurous weekend for me. Saturday dad and I spent the morning walking at Standing Bear Lake (dad refers to it as Dam Site 16). Besides getting a little rained on it was fun. Nice wide trail with new concrete. I even got into the lake. Just up to my belly though because it was cold.

On Sunday mom and dad took me to Cunningham Lake (again, dad refers to it as Dam Site 11). This walk wasn't as pleasant. It was warm yesterday afternoon and the trail really sucked. I have posted a few pictures below from my water break. Dad and mom planned ahead and brought me water this time.


I wish I could say that was the whole story. Unfortunately, during my adventures in the long grass ( I don't always care to walk on the trails) I received 5 ticks. 3 of which were found on me and the other 2 crawled off me while dad and I were napping and he found them on him. Which lead to a bath for me and some tick medicine (I was due for my monthly dose on Monday, lucky me).



Peace Out
