    i wanted to see a dog infested with ticks not this shit

  • actonbath

    Ticks are nasty. Seen dogs covered with them. Especially around the ears and in the ears. Sad sight.

  • FolstrimHori

    ah that’s good to hear

  • anirudhkrishnamani

    @FolstrimHori
    he’s fine now.
    the doc recommended a spray called “freedom”
    it worked well atleast he does’nt have as many ticks anymore.
    just 1 or 2

  • FolstrimHori

    WHERE THE HELL DOES YOUR DOG GO? I MEAN WHERE DO THEY COME FROM? Does he roll around in ticks or some shit? Does it have ticks breeding under the skin?

  • ramron333

    my dogs got no nose

  • anirudhkrishnamani

    my dog is filled with ticks.
    i remove at least 100 everyday.
    no matter what i do they keep coming.
    even a flee collar ain’t working.

  • Ballpythondude420

    depends where you walk your dog thats all

  • tapo1800

    i just use a match. light the match, let it burn for a sec, blow it out, keep blowing on it tell u get a lil ember going, tap the ember on the ticks butt and it will pull itself out head and all.

  • ilyxb00

    what breeds get ticks most? or is it like, more fur on the dog, more fleas/ticks? ty.

  • whatswithyous

    lol the dog is like “ugh, another video…”

  • Zorroitto

    JUST PULL THE FUKING TICK :P

  • magda2902

    nice try but it is not

  • Killedyourkitten

    i think thats a beagle O.O

    in my book beagles are an exception of the UNDOG category.

    actually i think its the only acception >.>

    now remember folks, if you can pick the dog up and punt it with hardly any effort (minus the little shit thrashing around)

    then it is…an UNDOG!! I REPEAT!! UNDOG!!

    when you find this out IMMEDIATELY KILL IT!!

  • Jakobinzrewolucji

    you will see if it has its had or has not

  • ladedk

    Yeah, and a real dog!!!

  • Bluesbabesrv

    Garlic and onions have the ingreadient thiosulphate that is poisonous to pets. No one should handle a tick or burst it, they contain bacteria and can spread disease. The tick should be pulled straight out without twisting.

  • trbomkiv

    I have a German Shepherd, after a hiking trip we found 6 ticks on him. We have flea/tick medication on him also. Will this only kill them after they bite into the skin? Also is there anything other than physically looking for ticks that we can do to get them out like soaking them in a bath?

  • babylache08

    that was on my dog.we pulled it off the old fashiond way.

  • QueenofDruqs

    pop that shit :D LOL

  • psjester84

    I have a scoop with a notch in it, works every time, head and all. Then they get the flame. I pulled one from my dog today and put my lighter to it. The little bastard exploded and flew across the room. I use Revolution on my dog. They still bite, but they die and fall off in a few hours if I don’t find them first.

  • pilotdave1000

    why did he put it on his hand when it could bite him?

  • vish8895

    i read this thing that says never twist it as that can leave the head in and can cause local infections…

  • BAvideos41

    ticks can suck up to 600x their own body weight in blood… thats why they r so fat :)

  • fenrirbr

    shouldn’t he wear gloves?

  • Trinitysx

    the dog lol, i know their so annoying always need to wake up early in the morning so it can take a piss, in the night before they go to sleep, and they do nothing whats so ever.
    So damn useless

  • Hancy18

    me n my neighbor used to pluck these them out of my old chihuahua.. it was kinda fun, knowing we were relieving it..

  • MsJustSmile1995

    i dont understand how he can just hold it to the camera all calsual and talk about it.. and not be scared that it might burrow in his hand… brave man.. XD

  • austin840052

    I bet he was fat and happy! :D

  • MishalMooreLover

    I can’t understand how people have that curage to have a tick in it’s hands and start discuss about it?!

    I’m so scared of tiny creatures like ticks and i would throw it away in a fire or something where it dies lol xD

  • blakesterzero

    one time i was sleeping and itched my head. i felt sumtin in my hair so i run into my bathroom and their is a ick crawling around my head but not burrowed. you use ur finger nail to cut the head off and flush it.

  • FarrahsxMommy

    seriously , what is the main reason these thinqs are here ?! whats the purpose !? i really wantto know !

  • anirudhkrishnamani

    @amirjon
    i did go to the vet.
    he gave me this thing called “freedom spray”.
    it works!
    the number of ticks on his body reduced drastically.
    at first he did’nt knw what 2 do but after trying some varieties of stuff we got 2 knw this spray works gr8.

  • amirjon

    wtf! r they reproducing on him??? cuzusually they get attached when dogs run by woods and bushes..thats disgusting though fuck maybe see a vet

  • oath50

    I hate these damn creatures

  • jonthrei321

    no and no

  • CKYguy1213

    nah you don’t feel it.. it only hurts when it starts digging in your skin.. I hear nail polish gets it off.. I didn’t know at first, and I just pulled it off myself, no tweezers or any of that

  • boysb4flowers4

    wait.. would ever feel a tick sucking your blood?? and does it hurt removing it??

  • anirudhkrishnamani

    @mandscat
    my dog is filled with them.
    i remove atleast 100 everyday!
    it drives me crazy!i bathe him every 2 days but still they keep coming!
    nothing works!

  • darthspeaks
