Lyme disease is a bacterial infection transmitted by ticks, affecting both humans and pets. Dogs may show symptoms like lameness, swollen joints, fever, and kidney issues 2-5 months after infection.
Protect your canine friend by avoiding tick-heavy areas, performing regular tick checks after outdoor adventures, and consulting your vet about prevention options. Early diagnosis and full-course antibiotic treatment (like doxycycline) usually lead to a positive outlook.
Don't ignore symptoms—your pet’s health depends on it! 🐾💉
