Hello, Gwlynda,
I am a German Shepherd dog breeder. I live in Margarita Island, Venezuela.
As we dogs breeders in all parts of the world well know, by these times
Ehrlichiosis is a disease so widespread that there is no country free from
it and it is not limited to dogs. One of the original reservoirs in USA is
deer, one of the main original vectors from deer to other animals and man
is, coincidentially, the Lone Star Tick. Any of the many hundreds of other
ticks can transmit it. Actually, in its differet types, E. canis, E.
ewingii, E. platys, E. chaffeensis (HME), HGE, Ehrlichia (and other
Rickettsiae like Venezuelan Human Platelet Rickettsia) attack dogs, horses,
goats, cats and other domestic and wild animals, and also HUMANS, going many
times misdiagnosed and creating a great human health hazard that can can
easily be mortal if not properly diagnosed and treated in time (probably
hundreds of deaths every year in USA alone). Actually, lice (main vector of
E. sennetsu in Asia), fleas, horse flies and, yes, even mosquitoes and other
hematophagus insects, can be vectors in human and animal cases of
Ehrlichiosis and Rickettsiosis
I have (or had, not sure yet) chronic Ehrlichiosis I got from my dogs. It
was misdiagnosed as measles with neumonitis and almost killed me. I have
been very successful using EIS (CS) and, even though it had invaded all my
body including all organs and bone marrow, it has been totally controlled. I
used to get relapses every few months while I was forced to use antibiotics
for lack of a better remedy. Not any more, not any antibiotics, only silver
and high quality nutrition and exercise. Will come back to that if anyone is
interested in more details
Concerning your female bulldog, I have several questions:
What type of tests were done?
What type of Ehrlichiosis was detected?
What antibiotics have been used in the treatment?
The common ones are oral Doxicycline or Tetracycline, but Ciprofloxacine,
Rifamicine and Fluoroquinolones are also used.
Have you had ALL the rest of your dogs tested? They may be asympthomatic and
still have it. Very seldom a single dog in a pack gets it.
Have you or any other person in contact with your dogs been closely watched
for sympthoms? Ehrlichiosis can mimmick any diseases, from a simple cold to
chicken pox to mononeucleosis to diabetes to HIV-AIDS and many others. Watch
for any sympthoms which may indicate any health issue, even mild. Remember
that detection in humans is very difficult and a normal laboratory will find
nothing in submitted infected blood samples.
In my dogs I have not had any Ehrlichiosis/Rickettsiosis outbreaks in about
four years. I used to control them with the mentioned antibiotics. At this
point, based in my personal experience, I would not hesitate to intensely
use Silver if I had any case in my dogs. In the meantime, they get a mild
maintenance dosis in their drinking water, plus reasonably good food and
enough exercise.
If I can be of any help please let me know.
Regards,
Carlos

One of my female bulldogs has been diagnosed with Ehrlichiosis.
Ehrlichiosis is a tick-borne rickettsial infectious blood disease. The
organism is called Ehrlichia, the disease is called Ehrlichiosis.
Ehrlichiosis (bacteria) attacks the red blood cells.
My question is.....how do I get CS to the red blood cell of my bulldogs to
kill the bacteria. She has been drinking CS but after a month of CS and
antibiotics she still has the bacteria attached to her red blood cells.
