If I could give deer ticks and Lyme Disease zero stars I would. Columbia, Greene, Dutchess, and Ulster Counties are the worst counties in New York State for Lyme Disease. My dog was rescued from Catskill(Greene County) and has chronic Lyme Disease which means there is the risk of her having long term health problems such as joint swelling, lameness, kidney problems and neurological problems. I love her anyway. I HATE Ticks.
