Any home remedies for removing sea ticks from a small, indoor dog?
Aug 13, 2008 by Justus Will be Delivered Jan. 28 | Posted in Dogs
My sister has a small terrier and it is strictly a house dog. Recently it got out for a short amount of time and when she came back in she was covered in sea ticks. If you aren't familiar with what "sea ticks" are, they are very small ticks that are barely visible. Anyways, my sister said that she just noticed them this morning and the dog had been chewing at her hind legs all night. So much so that both of her legs were completely wet. Does anyone have any home remedies to remove these ticks from her? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks!
Some info, hoped it helped.. :http://www.champi.nl/blog/ticks-and-dogs .html

Inmates claim state prison in Chino in practice of holding prisoners outside
13.01.10
"Now, once an inmate went through a riot and they were stripped down to their boxers to make sure that they had no weapons or contraband, they may have been outside in their boxers," said Lieutenant Mark Hargrove, a prison spokesman. "But as soon as we had availability to get them clothing, they were provided clothing and bedding."
Inmates held outside for 'night or two' Hargrove said some inmates were held outside, but only for a night or two.
"The riot was the only occasion when we had to house inmates outside for an extended period of time, including the evening hours," said Hargrove.
Steven Morrissette said that as soon as he arrived at the California Institution for Men in Chino, officials put him outside.
Morrissette ended up at the prison in Chino last March on a parole violation. The 24-year-old from Hesperia says for one week from sunrise to sunset, he shared a small outdoor enclosure with about 10 other inmates.
"They said because there was no housing for inmates," he said. "But if they have units to put us in at night, why would they keep us outside all day? It don’t make no sense. They didn’t have no housing at all for any of us."
If you haven’t looked at whats available in dog houses today, you ought to take a gander! Years ago, Rover’s home was usually a home made affair, built for utility – to a degree – but not especially attractive. Poor Rover’s castle was relegated to a corner of the patio, for aesthetic reasons. The unsightly dog house tended to ruin any ambitions Mom might have for a spread in ‘Better Homes & Gardens’. Let’s take a brief tour of how Rover might be more elegantly and comfortably housed.
Wooden and plastic houses
Wooden and plastic houses top the popularity list. A great deal of attention is paid in the design process to the comfort features. Most dog owners consider an insulated house to be the best choice. A house with flooring a few inches off the ground affords an insulating property which Rover appreciates, both in hot and cold weather situations. Warming pads on the floor gives your dog a cozy spot where he can dream, or just inspect his territory, in comfort.
Indoor dog houses
Did you know that there are indoor dog houses? Yes, indeed. These are perhaps the most stylish, as the materials don’t have to stand up to the weather, giving the house designer much latitude in the detailing. For example, for small dogs, a simple, but sturdy house of fabric covered wood can be a decorating asset in your living room. There’s an amazing array of dog houses of this type, in color schemes to match every decor.
Wooden indoor dog houses can be quite elaborate, with carved banisters leading from Rover’s entry to a stairway which gives him access to a rooftop lounging spot. Much like furnishings for people, these indoor homes come in traditional, contemporary and period styles! Your pooch can have a Queen Anne styled house to match your living room furniture. Haven’t you always wanted a sleigh bed for yourself? Well, if it’s too pricey for you, there’s no reason Rover should be deprived. Besides, you’ll get a bit of vicarious pleasure, viewing his enjoyment.
