Ticks can cause infection if their mouth is left behind when removed, this causes a local reaction. There are also some tick bourne diseases that ticks carry, but hese are quite rare. I recommend using a product such as frontline or nexgaurd or advocate to protect against ticks. And use a special tick remober to disattach any on the dog.
