Ticks are these little creatures that are actually related to spiders. They can be anywhere on your dog's body, including on the head, the neck and the belly. The ticks are actually going to be on bits of grass just waiting for your dog to go by. They don't fly, but they jump and they will go for those places that are closest to the grass, such as your dog's head and body.
