Hi Jan,
Good for you! You're doing great work with your Aussies, and yes, that's been my experience. If one contracts it in spite of all your efforts, you'd know most likely by sore joints, often more than one (polyarthritis). That's the time to get a homeopath on board, and get to work curing the whole dog, expecting fully that the Lyme organism will be dealt with.
That's what happened with the pup I wrote about. In general, anyone fighting any kind of disease, shows it by making symptoms. We watch for those to know when a challenge has arisen. There's a good list of the more chronic, subtle symptoms on this page.
Thanks for the question, and carry on with raising your Natural Path Ambassadors!
