Lyme disease is known to affect dogs. It is caused by a bacterium called Borrelia burgdorferi. Dogs get this bacterium from a deer tick bite. When the tick remains on the dog’s skin for more than two days, the bacteria is transmitted throughout the body and the dog succumbs to this disease.
There are various products available in the market for flea and tick control. Topicals such as ADVANTAGE, DEFEND, REVOLUTION, FRONTLINE TOPSPOT, CONTROL and BIOSPOT can be administered to the dog by placing the prescribed dosage on the back of the pet under the coat.
The beagle breed is in existence for a long time. But the origins are not known. These type dogs are known to be in existence from 400 B.C in Greece and 200 A.D in Britain. It is believed that the Romans took these dogs with them when they went to England.
