Re: Tick fever.

Mattered eyes, loss of appetite, loss of energy, rapid weight loss, sometimes rectal bleeding( either dark discharge or bright red discharge, sometimes nose bleed, Lyme disease often has swollen sore joints

Re: Tick fever.

Doxycycline 200mg twice a day for a minimum 2 weeks. Very hard to find and price has gotten outrageous!!! Also, some type of anti-inflammatory Remadyl or Deramax once a day for 5 days! 👍🏻

Re: Tick fever.

Very hard to cure but easy to prevent!! Purple Python cattle tags on their collars and change them out about every 6 weeks and you will never have ticks again. A little over a dollar a tag. If your hound is not worth that you don't need him

Re: Tick fever.

Can you order them online??

Re: Tick fever.
