Our Lorelei is currently being treated for Lyme Disease. I've had several people ask if we have our pets vaccinated for Lyme, and we do not. My vet does not recommend it, although I know some do. We treat our lawn with cedar oil, which is environmentally friendly and a safer alternative to harsh chemicals. In spite of this, the tick population is off the charts! I found this article that some may find useful on the topic of the Lyme vaccine. http://todaysveterinarypractice.navc.com/perspectives-vaccinating-dogs-against-lyme-disease-two-points-of-view/
