Canine Lyme disease

Prevention

A comprehensive tick-borne disease prevention program, including vaccination for canine , is one of the best preventive measures veterinarians can recommend. However, any prevention program should also include activities to lessen the risk of exposure to ticks - on the dog and around the home. Preventive measures may be more aggressive or less aggressive, and timing for treatments may also vary depending on the specific area - endemic, expansion or isolated.
