Deer ticks here in US. They carry a nasty virus called Lyme disease, named after Lyme, Connecticut where it was first identified. It is a debilitating joint disease that is very hard to diagnose and by the time it is found your a sick puppy. The medical profession is still arguing among themselves on how to treat it. They came out with a 2-shot preventative inoculation, then a year or so after that they quit offering it because a large percentage of the people receiving it got arthritis in later life!!! Course I got the shots
