Ticks can be quite annoying to dog owners. Despite regularly bathing and grooming their dogs, some owners will still find these pests in their dogs’ coats. While proper grooming goes a long way in ensuring that a dog’s coat is clean, it does not always get rid of ticks.<\/p>\n

Understanding what causes tick infestations to recur may help in safeguarding your dog\u2019s coat health.<\/p>\n

Why Do Dog Ticks Return After Bathing?<\/h2>\n

Bathing is known to get rid of the dirt and even some parasites from a dog\u2019s fur. The only problem is that ticks attach themselves firmly to the skin using their mouthparts. Therefore, regular dog shampoos might not be able to kill them.<\/p>\n

Ticks may also attach themselves to those parts of a dog\u2019s body that are very hard to clean. Some of the hard-to-clean spots include around the ears, between the toes, around the collar, and even under the tail.<\/p>\n

Moreover, dogs have a habit of walking around gardens, parks, high grass, or wooded areas where there is an increased risk of picking up some ticks.<\/p>\n
