Lyme Disease Awareness Month
Deer ticks aka black-legged ticks become active once the temperature reaches 4°C (39°F), and they remain active in the spring, summer, and fall seasons, as well as on warm winter days. Lyme disease is a tick-borne disease that causes debilitating lameness in dogs. Deer ticks carry the bacteria (Borreliaburgdorferi) that causes it.
