Lyme disease

So, we had a lyme disease scare...only we didn't know that's what it was. Thursday, our little pup was limping, Friday she was hobbling on three legs and would scream if you touched her. We thought she had sprained her little leg. Saturday morning she was flat on her belly, unable to move, all her legs lame, she couldn't get up. The Vet said it was classic case of Lyme and some antibiotic would take care of her. Luckily after one dose and a few hours she was walking again. By the next day, she was normal again. What a scare! And how heartbreaking to see her in such pain!

  1. Oh no! Poor Pepper!! We get dogs in rescue that have Lyme and we give them a few rounds of Doxy to clear it up. Hope she is feeling better now ;)
