The vet called this morning with the results of Piper's tick from a few weeks ago.
Bad news: I was wrong. It was a black-legged (deer) tick, the species that carries Lyme Disease, and not the harmless wood (dog) tick as I had thought.
Good news: Piper's tick tested negative for Lyme Disease, so she's okay.
We'll get her vaccinated and then have no more such worries.
I think Hubby is even more relieved than I am. For one so small, she makes up a good portion of our family.

Do you use any flea/tick products on Piper? I'm curious to know if they actually work or not.
