Hi everyone and all you furkids, I am responding to the post about the person that wanted to know if their furkids could get the Lyme disease from their dog. No, Lyme disease is NOT contagious, but they can get it if ticks are carried into the house and they get on the furkids. I suffer from chronic Lyme disease myself, I have had it now for about 14 years, I have all kinds of damage done to my body and organs aka heart brain and bones and so on. Any way, I just wanted the person and anyone else that might be wondering if their furkids get it from another animal, It is NOT a contagious disease but an infectious disease. I hope this helped, take care and LOVE your furkids. Trish and the furkids [Posted in FML issue 4583]
