Good to know! My boy’s getting annual blood work tomorrow, the senior panel. I’ll ask if this is on there.

I’m thrilled science has created a test for tick-borne illnesses in dogs. My dog Sasha contracted Erilichia twice, the first time almost killed her. I took her to a specialty clinic and she almost died before they found the answer. It was heartbreaking.

I’m so glad Sasha got through that! Marley had blood drawn today and they said his senior panel included lyme. I’ll see what else.

So glad that’s being tested for. Testing for just Lyme doesn’t capture all if there are other tick-borne illnesses are in your area.
