Ehrlichia canis is an intracellular gram-negative bacterial blood parasite transmitted by ticks. It belongs to the order Rickettsiales, which also includes Lyme's disease and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. It is a particularly difficult parasite to deal with because most dogs do not build immunity. They can get infected, be treated and cleared, and be reinfected shortly thereafter. Repeatedly. Many dogs do not even produce antibodies. The purpose of this article is to try to educate the dog owners so that they may better understand and recognize this disease and learn to deal with it. The area we live in is an endemic zone for canine ehrlichiosis; most all dogs are going to be exposed sooner or later. | | No comments for this item |

Not only can you have “your piece of Paradise” but you can have your own private beach rental house in the tiny fishing village of Cabuya in Costa Rica. You’ll be immersed in the sleepy village’s natural settings and overwhelmed by the friendly people who live on the tiny island close to Cabo Blanco Nature Reserve, nestled between the jungle and fringed by the coast and surrounding hills around your Costa Rica vacation rental.

A Great Idea
Locals know that the rip-tide at Las Manchas beach can be quite
dangerous, yet tourists aren´t aware of the danger.
However, new signs on the beach explain why it's necessary to keep
swimming to your left, because the riptide current pulls you out to
the right, and now there is a safety line on the right hand side.
