Ticked Off – New Info on Lyme Disease
Blame it on global warming (warmer winters), less snow, increased deer populations, or natural tick population cycles; Lyme disease caused by a Borrelia species and spread by feeding ticks, is on the rise and has been for several years. Canines typically do not show symptoms of early infection as humans do. Instead, they commonly develop fever, lamenesses, arthritis, swollen and painful lymph nodes, and general soreness 2 to 6 months after contracting the disease. Less often, some animals go on to develop neurologic disease , severe, generally fatal kidney disease or heart complications.
