Ixodes scapularis (eastern blacklegged tick) and Ixodes pacificus (western blacklegged tick) are the culprits behind transmitting Borrelia burgdorferi, the causative agent for Lyme disease. Veterinarians have the tools to diagnose and treat Lyme disease in their canine patients, but the serious health issues that Lyme disease can cause in dogs has made early diagnosis and treatment critical for successful outcomes. In this VetFolio Voice podcast episode, you’ll learn about ticks and tick-borne pathogens, specifically B. burgdorferi, and the diagnostic steps to take when a patient tests positive for Lyme antibodies as well as treatment considerations and prognosis. You’ll also hear about the importance of prevention when it comes to Lyme transmission and the tick preventative and vaccination strategies available to protect your patients.
