Ticks

Shelby has been on NextGuard and HeartGuard since the beginning. The NextGuard+ combo is even better we have an automatic subscription for her now with our vet.

I dont take her to trails or any woods but you never know.
In this part of the country you don't need to go to wooded areas. I used to live in a second-floor apartment in Yonkers and would find several ticks inside every year. Lil bastards scare the hell out of me.
 
Just received word that I was in the treatment group for the Pfizer Lyme Study.

It was in the news that not enough participants contracted Lyme in the placebo group to get the confidence up to where they needed it.
Pfizer has decided to file for general use - looks like they are 95% confident that it is 70% effective.
If the complication rate is low, that seems a reasonable start.

I will be participating in the follow-up study which is a 5th dose (maybe - again double-blind)
