Yea they diagnosed the first few dogs with heart problems, poor circulation, some had no answers?! Finally they started doing the tick deal on all the suck dogs and everyone is coming back positive. Talking to a vet, 8-10 years ago they would give some astronomical chance for your dog to get a tick disease. Like 1 and 1 million for example. Now I would say 1 in 5 dogs we own gets it's or has it. And not just one, a wide range of Rocky Mountain spotted fever, Lymes disease, etc... tell tale signs are swollen feet and legs after hunting, not eating and generally you can just see a drop in the dogs performance. Maybe they arnt finishing tracks like they used to or just actions different. Usually a few weeks of treatment and they are back to normal. It varies in effects upon the dogs.

To me with the increase in hog numbers across the state, deer numbers are at an all time, everytihing comes with it with way more ticks and way more tick diseases. Just my take on everything but it's become a pretty big deal around here on taking out some really great dogs
