90% Of Dogs Do Not Belong At Dog Parks

We all know the importance of socialising our dogs but often this is mistaken by the thought of “My dog has to play with as many other dogs as possible”! So most people think the dog park is a great place for socialisation.

Trust us, we do think dog parks are a great idea for some dogs and owners but not really for socialisation.

🚨Tick season is upon us Sydney🚨
http://www.misfitsfarmhouse.com.au/ticks

Sydney's tick season typically extends from late August to March each year, with unusually wet or warm weather often preceding outbreaks. Each year hundreds of animals in Sydney need Veterinary treatment after being affected by these deadly parasites.

Ticks are commonly encountered across Australia.
Symptoms from tick bites range from localised irritation, severe allergic reactions, tick paralysis to tick borne illnesses. There are some simple steps you can take to protect your family and pets from tick bites and to keep these tiny arachnids out of your garden.

WHAT DO TICKS LOOK LIKE?
Ticks have a beak-like mouth piece and a pear shaped body which becomes engorged when feeding. Adult ticks are 4mm in size with 8 legs, nymph stage are 1.2mm and the larvae are 0.5mm in size with 6 legs. The larvae are often difficult to see until engorged.

WHEN ARE TICKS MOST LIKELY TO BITE?
Ticks are active most of the year but particularly so after rain and periods of high humidity. Ticks are more troublesome during the warmer months, between October and January. Tick related allergy or illnesses are more likely to occur from bites of nymph and adult ticks.

WHAT DO TICKS FEED ON?
Ticks feed on blood from animals including birds, possums, rats, dogs, bandicoots, kangaroos, wallabies, rabbits and humans. Female ticks take their blood feed from the host animal. The male ticks attach to feed of the female ticks.

REDUCE THE RISK OF TICK BITES

YOU CAN REDUCE YOUR PETS RISK OF A TICK BITE BY:
Prevention is the best medicine when dealing with ticks, and we urge pet owners to be aware that the season is about to start again. Each year vet's treat numerous animals for tick paralysis, many of whom are very ill. In so many cases the owners simply get caught out when the season starts. We want to get the word out to pet owners to be alert and make sure they start their pets on preventatives now, in order to ensure their animals are safe and protected.

Tick prevention products include monthly or three monthly chews, top spot products, tick collars, and rinses, with your local vet clinic able to offer free advice on the most suitable product for your pets. Careful daily searching of your pets coat in spring and summer is also recommended in both dogs and cats, even if tick prevention products are in use.

YOU CAN REDUCE YOUR RISK OF A TICK BITE BY:
wearing long sleeve shirts and tucking shirts into pantswearing long pants tucked into sockswearing a hatwearing light coloured clothingusing a tropical strength insect repellent (use on clothes too)wearing permethrin-treated clothingavoiding brushing up against vegetationCheck for Ticks

Ticks can wonder for up to 2 hours looking for a place to attach. After being in the garden:

check your body particularly behind your ears, scalp, groin, and armpitschange clothing, placing unlaundered clothing in a hot dryer for 20 minutes to kill any ticksgroom and check petsKeep Ticks Out of Your Garden

Ticks favour moist humid vegetation close to the ground. Reduce the likelihood of ticks in your garden by:

keeping lawn shortremoving weeds and dead vegetationpruning low vegetation to increase sunlight using gravel mulches instead of wood chip and strawemploying a professional pest controller in areas where ticks regularly occurRemove a Tick

Kill the tick where it is attached, do not attempt to remove a live tick. If in doubt about removing ticks or you experience any symptoms seek medical attention.

TO REMOVE A LARVAE OR NYMPH:
Use a Permethrin based cream (e.g. Lyclear) and dab onto the tick.Cream is to be applied lightly, rubbing the cream in may disturb the tick.Wait for the tick to die (1 to 3 hours) and avoid disturbing the tick.Once dead, the tick should drop off.

TO REMOVE AN ADULT TICK:
Freeze and kill the tick using an ether containing spray (e.g. wart or skin tag remover). The spray is to be held 0.5cm above the tick and multiple sprays up to 5 times may be required.Wait for the tick to die and avoid disturbing the tick.Once dead, the tick should drop off.

If a dead tick does not drop off it may be removed using surgical tweezers or scraping it out in the opposite direction to the way it’s attached. Do not compress or squeeze the body if required to remove a dead tick.

🚨WHAT NOT TO DO!🚨
Do not use folklore remedies to kill a tick with irritant chemicals such as methylated spirits, alcohol, nail polish remover or petroleum jelly. Do not try to burn it or pull it out with tweezers. These methods aggravate the tick causing it to inject more toxic saliva into you.

HEALTH EFFECTS OF TICK BITS
When feeding, ticks inject saliva that contains toxins and potentially pathogens transferred from their last host. Symptoms from tick bites range from localised irritation to serious health effects. These include severe allergic reactions, tick paralysis, mammalian product allergy or tick borne illnesses such as Spotted Fever and Lyme-like diseases.

Right place right time!
Just a reminder to keep a close eye on our 🐕 fur babies, especially when out and about around water and wild life.
Terrific work Marine Area Command - NSW Police Force 👌👍

On Saturday, this adventurous doggo was in a park near Bedlam Bay, Gladesville with owners when it suddenly ran into the water and swam about 150 – 200 metres in paw-suit of several seagulls nesting on a moored yacht.

The seagulls channelled their inner magpies and started swooping the dog who began swimming in circles trying to get away from the ‘gullpies’ originally chased.

Owners began to get concerned when doggo appeared to tire.

Coincidentally, Marine Area Command were driving toward the bay and were waved down. Initially thinking someone was having difficulty in the water, they were able to spot the tired and scared doggo, safely brought it onboard the vessel and returned it to thankful parents. Paw-fect work guys! 🐕🐾🐦⚓️👌

Protect your heart (and your money) from pet scammers! ❤️🐾

Scammers are creating very authentic looking websites and fooling unsuspecting victims to pay thousands of dollars for puppies or kittens that don’t exist, allegedly being sold by a legitimate breeder, who also does not exist.

NSW Police are urging the community to be extra vigilant when deciding to purchase a puppy or kitten online. If you are in doubt, seek advice from a reputable breeders association, vet, animal shelter or local pet shop.

⚠️ If you think you've come across a pet scam, you can report it to ScamWatch via https://www.scamwatch.gov.au/report-a-scam
