Ticks can cause so many infections in dogs. So kindly have a check with your local vet to rule out any sort of infections.

Yes, ticks are the most probable cause of such illness in your pet. It calls for immediate veterinary intervention. Ticks will be treated , followed by further diagnostics and treatment will be done accordingly. Do not delay any further.
