They may be small, but ticks can have a massive impact on your dog's health, performance, and even your hunting season.
In this episode of Dog Driven, we're taking a deep dive into one of the most overlooked threats facing sporting and working dogs. We'll cover the most common tick species, the diseases they carry, how infections occur, what clinical signs to watch for, and why early detection can make all the difference.
You'll also learn practical prevention strategies, how to perform an effective post-hunt tick check, what to do if you find an attached tick, and the biggest misconceptions surrounding tick-borne disease. Whether you hunt waterfowl, upland birds, run hunt tests, compete in field trials, or simply enjoy the outdoors with your dog, this episode will help you better protect the partner that's always by your side.
A tiny bite can lead to big consequences—but with the right knowledge, you can reduce the risk and keep your dog healthy, safe, and ready for the next adventure.
Because every great hunt starts with a healthy dog. Stay Dog Driven.
