Tick Life Cycle
Click image to enlarge
Ticks are blood-sucking parasites that attach to dogs and humans. After feeding they drop off to hide in a warm, dark place and lay eggs—one female may lay as many as 20,000 over a lifetime. A tick goes through several stages from larva to adult and can feed on your dog or you at any stage of its life. Ticks live in the environment—particularly in woods and shrubbery—and are hard to avoid. Dog owners can help protect their pets from tick-borne diseases with the Preventic® Collar for Dogs—the one recommended by and available only from veterinarians.
