Cause of Tick Fever in Dogs
Tick fever affects dogs more often than cats. The tropical climate makes ticks abundant in India and tick fever has become very common across all breeds and ages over the last couple of years. Tick bites transfer the parasites that cause the illness.
Tick fever is common in warm and humid climates like that of Mumbai and even Bengaluru!
