No-one want to see their pet in distress, so you have all our sympathy. I think it's also worth pointing out that Lyme's is a serious problem for humans too. It's spread via tick bites and is very debilitating. See http://www.bird-dog-news.com/SO92/Page33.html for more information. Lambert > -----Original Message----- > From: John W.
