4-in-1 Dog tick disease test
GetTested’s 4-in-1 Tick Test for Dogs is a rapid at home blood test that screens for antibodies linked to four tick borne infections in dogs: Ehrlichia, Lyme disease (Borrelia), Anaplasma and Babesia gibsoni. Tick borne infections can affect a dog’s energy, movement, appetite and overall condition. Symptoms may be vague, develop gradually or appear after outdoor exposure in tick areas. The test gives a clear result in approximately 5 to 10 minutes, helping you quickly check whether tick related infection may be involved.

About this test – 4-in-1 Dog tick disease 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 – 4-in-1 Dog tick disease test
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.
Customer reviews – 4-in-1 Dog tick disease test
4.5/5 (8)
- 5/5 — Very convenient test to have at home when living in tick-heavy areas. The instructions were clear and it was quick to get the results on the strip. Nice to be able to check the dog yourself without booking an appointment immediately.
- 5/5 — Funkade jättebra och gav tydligt resultat på bara några minuter!
- 4/5 — Good with a test that covers several different infections at once. It was a bit fiddly to get the blood sample from my dog who doesn't like sitting still, but once done, the result was easy to read. Fast delivery too!
- 5/5 — Snabbt och smidigt test, skönt att få svar direkt hemma.
- 4/5 — Bra kit som var lätt att använda, men instruktionerna krävde att man läste noga. Skönt att kunna kolla alla fyra sjukdomarna samtidigt.
- 5/5 — quick and easy.
- 4/5 — Bought this because my dog has seemed a bit sluggish lately after we were in the archipelago. The packaging was intact upon arrival and everything needed was included. The test showed results after just a few minutes, which was exactly what I needed for a first check. Fair price for a 4-in-1.
- 4/5 — Had some questions about how to interpret the result so I contacted customer service. Got a friendly reply fairly quickly. The testing procedure itself for Ehrlichia and the other things was easy to follow step-by-step. Hard to know exactly how deep to prick, but it worked out.
