Canine Lyme Disease<\/a><\/strong> is caused by Borrelia burgdorferi and carried by deer ticks (or connected ticks).In areas wherever the sickness is common up to 75% of dogs will test positive for exposure. Puppy training disease can trigger difficulties in several parts of your dog’s system.<\/p>\n

Canine Lyme disease symptoms usually occur within a period of two to five months of the dog being bitten by a tick. A brief description of canine Lyme disease symptoms has been described below.<\/p>\n

Lyme disease does not begin as a psychiatric illness. Other symptoms occur in early stage disease. Lyme disease patients experiencing heart symptoms are treated with antibiotics, such as ceftriaxone or penicillin, given intravenously for about two weeks.<\/p>\n

If these symptoms persist or are severe enough, patients may also be treated with corticosteriods or given a temporary internal cardiac pacemaker. Lyme disease is most prevalent in the northeast region of the United States, the north central states, and on the west coast, especially northern California. It is also found in Europe as well as in parts of Asia and Australia.<\/p>\n

Typical symptoms include fever, headache, fatigue, and a characteristic skin rash called erythema migrans . If left untreated, infection can spread to joints, the heart, and the nervous system.<\/p>\n

Typically the first and most distinctive symptom of Lyme Disease is an expanding rash which usually radiates from the site of the tick bite. The rash usually appears 1-2 weeks after the tick bite.<\/p>\n

Vaccination should be discussed with your veterinarian. Vaccinating your dog will protect it from several deadly diseases and viruses. It is best to not take your puppy to locations other dogs visit until it has most of its vaccinations.<\/p>\n

Vaccinations can be started after 12 weeks with two doses given three weeks apart and then yearly boosters. It is also recommended that the vaccine be only given where lyme disease is a problem.<\/p>\n
