I was reminded that Lyme disease is here in Lafayette IN with a big slap to the side of my head yesterday. My horse, April, tested positive for exposure to the bacteria that causes lyme disease. It is carried by ticks. Unlike horses and humans, there is a vaccine available for dogs. If you have seen ticks or removed ticks from your dog, it is at risk for contracting lyme disease. Please use a topical tick preventive like Vectra 3D, Advantix or frontline, a tick collar or an oral tick preventive like Nexgard or Bravecto. We screen for lyme disease in our yearly 4dx testing that also checks for heartworm disease.
