Could anyone advise please? Is this a skin tag or a tic?

    Don’t pull on it. You can seperate the butt from the rest of the body, and you push the blood back from its butt into your dog. If it’s a tick it looks really full, and will fall off soon. Get yourself a tick tweezer, that way you hold the tick from its body and then twist it off without risk of pushing blood back.

      Yeah I 2nd tick tweezers. I removed a lot of tick from shalter dogs and tick tweezers are so simple but efficient: just don’t pull but rather, like state, twist it off!
