What tool would you use to remove a tick from the skin of a dog?

Your best option is to clearly mark the location of the tick, such as by trimming the hair around the tick, and then taking your dog to a veterinarian. Once the head of the tick is lost in the skin, it will likely take local anesthetic and possibly a bit of surgery to remove it.
Trying to remove this at home is probably just going to make the situation worse.

How do you you take the ticks of the rabbit?
First answer: You can get a paper towel then press on the rabbits ear then it will be in your paper towel then you throw it in the toilet. But make sure not to hurt the rabbit!Disagreement: Ticks can attach anywhere on the body, not just the ears. Also, they tend to grip on hard, so paper towel is not likely to get the tick off without crushing it, which is dangerous!Be very careful with ticks! The insides of a tick carry diseases, and if you crush the tick you can make yourself and your rabbit very sick.If you aren't comfortable doing first aid on your rabbit, you should just bring him to the vet.If you are experienced with caring for bunnies and know how to keep your rabbit still and calm, then remove the tick yourself.To remove the tick:Use a special tool called a "ticktong," or you can use your fingernails or tweezers.Pull up gently on the tick's body, separating it from the skin, and pulling from as close to the front of the tick's body as possible. Use gentle, slow movements; you can turn the body a little, but don't rotate.Another option is to smother the tick in petroleum jelly, and it should detach itself.Flush the tick down the drain to get rid of it permanently.Over the next while, keep a close eye on your bunny. If you notice any irritation on the skin where the tick was, or any signs of illness at all, go the vet. (Irritation includes ongoing redness or fur loss, or any swelling, bleeding, pus.)
