ITS TIME TO FRONTLINE YOUR MUTTS - ITS THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN - TICKS
Ticks are parasitic arthropods that feed on the blood of their hosts. They are attracted to warmth and motion. Ticks tend to hide out in tall grass or plants in wooded areas waiting for prospective hosts. Once a host is found, the tick climbs on and attaches its mouthparts into the skin, beginning the blood meal. Once locked in place, the tick will not detach until its meal is complete. It may continue to feed for several hours to days, depending on the type of tick. On dogs, ticks often attach themselves in crevices and/or areas with little to no hair – typically in and around the ears, the areas where the insides of the legs meet the body, between the toes, and within skin folds. Most species of ticks go through four life stages - eggs, larvae, nymphs, and adults. All stages beyond eggs will attach to a host for a blood meal (and must do so on order to mature). Depending on species, the life span of a tick can be several months to years, and female adults can lay hundreds to thousands of eggs at a time.

Furminator Alternative
I just thought I would write a quick note about an alternative to using a Furminator. Using a Furminator you are actually cutting the dogs coat but if you just want to get rid of the dead hair then use a RUBBER GLOVE. It has to be the latex kind (i use the ones with powder in them to get them on and off easily) then just stoke the dogs back and sides 'Firmly' and the rubber will grip the loose dead hair. This only works well on short haired dogs.
(I will post photos next time I do this on my dog)

Bronte - The Cavapoo
Here is Bronte the Cavapoo who belongs to a friend of mine who had her groom today:
Before:
After:
Because she had gone 3 months she was very very knotty & matted and I didn't want to put her through the brushing out so I managed to get a No. 4F through the coat, normally I groom her every 8 weeks and use a peach comb guard.
