Terran on Dogs & Ticks

I, Terran, don’t really like checking the dogs for ticks.  I feel like it’s too easy to miss them because they are so small.  It would be so much easier if there was a special brush that would catch the ticks.  I was also wondering, as I was petting the dog, if it would be possible to develop a small alarm that would go off to let you know that a dog was about to drool on you.

River on Dogs & Ticks

I, River, liked Terran’s idea of a tick brush, but was thinking it would be even better to have a wand, or something like that, to run over yourself or a dog to detect ticks.  That way, there would never be a question about whether or not you missed finding one.  Even tick-free, our dogs are often dirty or wet when they come inside.  I thought of a second invention that could be installed in couches and chairs that would deter dogs, until they were clean and dry.

You can see some of our other ideas from the week here:
