Puppy very sick--Lyme?

You can ask the vet. I think there is a blood work they do on dogs to find some tick borne infection. Not the in house snap test that they usually do. They draw blood and send it to the lab. Now, are these tests as inaccurate as our TBD tests, probably. What are the symptoms of the puppy besides not eating? Lyme in dogs can manifest with lameness, painful joints and swelling. If untreated, it can result in damage to the kidney and heart. Dogs respond very well to treatment. They are usually treated with doxycycline. Did the pup have any tick embedded at anytime of its life? There could be something else bothering him/her. When a dog stops eating it is because it is not feeling well or is in pain. What did the vet say? Why are you thinking lyme? It could be something else....

Thanks for your answers. I do not know the medical history of the puppy and if she has had her shots.
I was mainly wondering if the Lyme test at the vet would be
as accurate as the Igenex is for humans. Thanks

Thanks so much! I will share that with my niece

And AML, he specializes in Bartonella. But you're probably right, it may very well be the best lab.

My dog's titers were extremely high, but my vet used the fanciest and most expensive test. The other vet didn't have that test.
