🚨 Attention Dog Owners: Canine Ehrlichiosis Alert 🚨

Vets are warning that Canine Ehrlichiosis — a tick-borne disease that assaults a dog’s immune system — is now spreading across northern Australia and is considered endemic in those regions.

🐾 What you need to know:
The disease is transmitted when a brown dog tick infected with the Ehrlichia bacteria bites your dog. Symptoms can begin to show about two weeks after infection. There are three stages of the disease; early detection is crucial.

⚠️ How to protect your dog:
1) Use effective tick prevention products, especially if travelling or living in higher-risk areas.
2) Check your dog regularly for ticks — especially after being outdoors
3) Be vigilant for signs of illness (lethargy, fever, loss of appetite, bleeding or unusual bruising)
4) Seek veterinary help immediately if you suspect tick exposure or illness

As the disease becomes more established, ongoing care and awareness are essential. Let’s all stay alert and protect our dogs wherever they roam.
