That's true, dogs can get lyme disease. There is a vaccination for it, but my vet says it isn't practical/doesn't work real well. I forget her explanation. Will ask her again at Crosby's annual checkup in September.

There are cases of lyme disease reported in FL. About 30% of them originate in FL.
