~ Please Don't Touch The Daisies ~ It seems like every year I see dogs and their handlers stung by venomous insects whilst training or hunt testing. Be on the lookout for these nasty pests.

Deer ticks that can cause lyme disease are a big problem here in Ontario.

Sharon,
We share the same problem here in Connecticut. I contracted Lyme disease a number of years ago and it is no fun. Ticks can also carry a number of other nasty microbes that will make your life miserable or that of our dogs.
