Description Canine heartworm disease, canine ehrlichiosis, canine babesiosis and canine Anaplasma disease are common blood-related infections in dogs.Despite the different pathogens, there are many commonalities.
Similarities Route of transmission: These diseases are transmitted by arthropods. Canine heartworm disease is transmitted by mosquitoes, while canine ehrlichiosis, canine babesiosis and canine Anaplasma disease are transmitted by ticks.
Symptoms: All may cause systemic symptoms such as fever, lethargy, loss of appetite and weight loss. All may cause anaemia and other blood-related symptoms.
Geographic Distribution: These diseases have a global distribution and are especially common in areas where ticks and mosquitoes are active.
Differences Pathogen:
Canine Heartworm Disease: caused by the canine heartworm.Canine Ehrlichiosis: caused by Ehrlichia spp.Canine Babesiosis: caused by Babesia spp.Canine Anaplasma disease: caused by Anaplasma spp.
Specific symptoms:Canine Heartworm Disease: characteristic signs include coughing, dyspnoea, decreased exercise tolerance, heart failure, ascites.Canine Ehrlichiosis: Characteristic symptoms include nosebleeds, bleeding tendencies, joint pain and eye problems (e.g. uveitis).Canine Babesiosis: the main signs are acute anaemia, jaundice, splenomegaly and fever.Canine Anaplasma Disease: Symptoms are similar to those of canine babesiosis, but sometimes less severe.Detection methodsCanine heartworm disease: Antigen test: detects canine heartworm antigen in the blood and is the most commonly used screening method. Microfilariae test: Microfilariae (larvae) can be directly observed on blood smears. Imaging tests: X-rays and echocardiograms are used to assess damage to the heart and lungs. PCR test: Used to detect the DNA of canine heartworms with high sensitivity and specificity. Canine Ehrlichiosis: Blood smear test: blood smears can be observed for Ehrlichia, blood biochemistry and complete blood counts show anaemia and thrombocytopenia. PCR test: detects Ehrlichia DNA with high sensitivity and specificity. Canine babesiosis: Blood smear test: direct observation of Babesia. PCR test: detects Babesia spp. DNA with high sensitivity and specificity. Serological tests: detection of anti-Babesia antibodies. Blood biochemistry tests: to assess anaemia, bilirubin levels and renal function. Canine Anaplasma disease: Blood smear: direct observation of Anaplasma . PCR: Detects Anaplasma DNA with high sensitivity and specificity. Serological tests: Detection of anti-Anaplasma antibodies. Blood biochemistry: To assess anaemia and bilirubin levels.
