This Pet Owner Thought Bug Bites Caused Holes On Her Dog’s Body; But What The Vet Revealed Broke Her Heart
Possible Culprits
Jane thought that Pancakes possibly had tick bites. The infected black-legged variant can carry the bacteria Borrelia burgdorferi, which then causes Lyme disease. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, symptoms include fever, sluggishness, lethargy, swollen lymph nodes, and lame joints.
Another possible reason that Jane had researched is due to botflies. This could be it because the photos on the internet somehow resembled what Pancakes had. These insects could have latched their eggs onto his body and found their way into the tissue. The worst part is that the owner might never know about this until the holes become visible.
