Most deadly disease in dogs Ehrlichiosis Symptoms, Treatment, and Prevention

 

Ehrlichiosis a tick-borne disorder transmitted by the ticks infected with bacteria called ‘Ehrlichia canis’ (E.canis). The brown dog ticks are the known primary carriers of this disease. A single bite of E.canis bacteria is enough to cause the infection. It is to keep in mind that infected dogs do not transmit this disease to other non-infected dogs. The disease is transmitted only through the infected tick bite. Once the dog gets the infection through an infected tick bite, it takes 1-3 weeks from the initial bite to show the symptoms. While the chronic form of Ehrlichiosis may develop months or years following the infection.
