You can use soapy water or alcohol to smear the wound, relieve pain, reduce swelling, after a while or the next day when the dog does not feel so painful and then clean up, it will be more cooperative, the dog who really does not cooperate has to go to the hospital to ask the doctor to help deal with it, no matter how it must be cleaned up, the tick mouthparts can not be left in the **, it will be infected.
