Another thing is, once you have had lymes, your future tests will always be positive. Alot of Dr.s will put you on Tetracycline and treat you with out the test. Also, watch out for all the nock off tick preventers for your dogs. I only trust (Frontline). We tried some other (cheaper) stuff and my dog got siezures and almost died. The Vet said this other product is known to be fatal at times and has a very high allergic reaction rate. Be careful!!!! and always vaccinate your dog for lymes, it truely works.
It is kinda fun though hav'n moma do the tick check on me.
