I've never had to try the gin, just as well it would seem.

You'd be better off drinking the gin yourself! Especially after finding one of the little beasts on your dog:D

I know someone who swears by garlic. She gives her dogs one garlic tablet every day and has never had any problems with ticks or fleas, they just seem to avoid her dogs.

I've heard that too, about garlic. Also my dogs swim in the sea whenever possible and my vet mentioned that it's good to let them dry naturally afterwards as the salt on their fur deters fleas.

Doesn't seem to bother ticks though!
