Ticks are out in full force! Do you know how to properly remove a tick off of your pet? CAPC (Companion Animal Parasite Council) reccomends: To remove ticks manually, use fine forceps to grasp the tick it as close to the skin as possible and then directly extract using slow, steady, rearward pressure. Gloves should be worn to prevent zoonotic infection in the event a tick is inadvertently crushed during removal.
