Blood, liver and kidney tests have been conducted of almost all shelter dogs—including the new pups—during the last couple of months. Standard values haven't been found on any of them. Anemia is very common and blood parasites have been detected on a few of them. A treatment of Doxycycline combined with a blood support medication was necessary for most of the dogs, and still is for some of them. Liver and kidney problems are rather rare. Blood parasites are caused by tick bites. Tick infestation can only be controlled by administration of Bravecto which is effective for about three months.
