About this test
How Tick Borne Infections Can Differ
Tick borne infections can cause overlapping symptoms, but they do not always affect the body in the same way. Some are more strongly linked to joint stiffness, limping and reduced mobility, while others may affect blood cells, immune response, energy levels or overall condition.
This is why symptoms such as fatigue, fever, appetite changes, pale gums or limping can be difficult to connect to one specific infection based on signs alone.
Common Signs of Tick Borne Infection
Dogs affected by tick borne infections may experience:
Fatigue or reduced energy
Fever
Stiffness or limping
Joint discomfort
Loss of appetite
Weight loss
Pale gums
Reduced overall condition
Some dogs may show mild or unclear signs, especially in the early stages.

Frequently asked questions
Why test for several tick borne infections at once?
Ticks can transmit more than one type of infection, and symptoms may overlap. Screening for several infections in one test can provide broader first information after tick exposure.
Why is Lyme disease written with Borrelia?
Lyme disease is the condition, while Borrelia is the bacteria associated with it. This test screens for antibodies linked to Borrelia exposure.
When is this test useful for dogs?
This test may be useful after tick exposure, outdoor activity in tick areas, or when a dog has fatigue, fever, stiffness, limping, appetite changes or reduced condition.
