Well the dog would be miserable itchy and anemic, which could lead to more health problems and/or death. Ticks also carry nifty little things like Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, not only can they be transmitted to your dog but often once the tick is full of blood it will drop off for a while then go looking for another blood meal and that next meal could be you or your kids.
Don't take chances with your pet's health or your own. Get some flea and tick products and USE THEM!

Remove it, if you know how to.
Otherwise get your vet to do it, you don't want to rip out only part of the tick and leave the head in, which can cause infection.

Afterwards put your dog on an anti-tick prevention programme.

The ticks will eventually get so big and fat they will fall off or they can get infected and sometimes get imbedded in the skin. But you shouldn't leave them on your dog that long and you should make sure that your dog has some type of flea and tick medicine so it doesn't end up with lymes disease.

if its just one and if the tick does not have any diseases, it will eventually release itself and go on its way. However it has the potential to make your dog very ill if its carrying a disease. If there is more than one tick it can cause your dog to become anemic and eventually die.

The tick will grow so LARGE that it will eventually suck your dog through its mouth and inside the tick itself. Then you will have a large Tickdog. And you'll have to get him a FLea collar so that some Flea doesn't come along and steal his idea.
