dc.description.abstractThirty five (35) ehrlichiosis affected dogs exhibited symptoms of fever (90%), epistaxis (50%), popliteal lymph node enlargement (60%), respiratory distress (80%), anorexia (95%), anemia (71%), dullness (80%), depression (70%) with tick infestation or previous history of tick infestation. Examination of Giemsa stained peripheral thin blood smears revealed 16.12% (35/35) positivity for morulae of Ehrlichia canis. Hematological parameters showed monocytosis (91.42%) and thrombocytopenia, activated platelets (17.14%) and hypochromasia (42.85%). All dogs were treated with Doxycycline for twenty one days along with supportive therapy. Complete recovery was noticed in all after a month of treatment and recurrence of infection was also noticed in 2/35 (5 percent) within six months after therapy.en_US
