  1. My short term foster with the suspect Ehrlichia titers was on Doxycycline for 30 days. She finished the Doxy on Apr 11, and is going to her new home soon. How long should we wait to retest? (She is a one year who was never sick. The tick titers were just done to be sure there was nothing that might be a problem later.)

  2. Don't worry about the cystocentesis--when Zippy had it done, I was at her head, helping stabilize her as she lay on her back, and I saw it done; didn't seem to really bother her at all.

     

     

    The last time one of my girls had a cystocentesis, she rolled over on her back on her own, then stayed there for belly rubs after they finished. My dogs all love my vet.

  3. I think when they say that only dogs with compromised immune systemd get it, they're talking about the dog getting sick. It doesn't sound like your dog is sick if they just found it on a routine stool sample. Coccidia is common in many environments and easy to pick up. Wouldn't hurt to treat, but I wouldn't be too worried.
