Continue annual leptospirosis vaccination, which is safe and effective. Avoid exposure to stagnant water and areas frequented by wildlife.
Canine Leptospira titer: negative (<1:100, score 0)A titer of 1:800 or higher indicates active or recent infection with Leptospira. Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease (transmissible to humans). It causes fever, muscle pain, vomiting, increased thirst, and can rapidly progress to kidney failure, liver failure, and bleeding disorders. Outbreaks are common after heavy rainfall or flooding.
This is a serious, reportable disease. Treatment involves doxycycline (for 2 weeks) and aggressive supportive care (IV fluids, anti-nausea medication). Hospitalization is often needed. Your dog's kidneys and liver must be closely monitored. HANDLE WITH CAUTION — leptospirosis is zoonotic and can infect humans through contact with infected urine. Wear gloves when cleaning up after your dog.
