| dc.description | The health of our pets is at risk when they come into contact with hematophagous arthropods that carry infectious agents that include viruses, bacteria, among others. In the case of ticks, they transmit diseases such as Babesiosis, Ehrlichiosis, Anaplasmosis and Lyme disease in dogs. Rhipicephalus sanguineus transmits hemoparasitic diseases that affect the health and decompensate the blood components of our pets. Canine monocytic Ehrlichiosis is attributed to a bacteria named Ehrlichia canis, a common disease in tropical and subtropical areas. These microorganisms are present globally and affect the health of animals, causing symptoms such as anemia and decreased platelets. Ehrlichia canis, Ehrlichia chaffeensis and Ehrlichia ewingii are the most common species, and are found in the leukocytes of several mammals in the form of compact colonies called "morulae". Transmission in canids occurs when a tick that subsequently fed on the blood of another sick dog bites a healthy one; these microorganisms are sensitive to tetracyclines. In the Ventanas Canton, Los Ríos Province, the tropical climate favors the presence of ticks, increasing the incidence of canine Ehrlichiosis. Ticks infected with Ehrlichia canis can transmit the bacteria throughout their lives. At the "Dr. JEFF" veterinary center in Ventanas, dogs with symptoms of E hrlichiosis are frequently received. To confirm the disease, owners are recommended to perform hematological biometry and a blood smear to identify the hemoparasitic agent in leukocytes, platelets or erythrocytes. | es_ES |

| dc.description.abstract | La salud de nuestras mascotas corre riesgos al momento en el que se pone en contacto con artrópodos hematófagos que son portadores de agentes infecciosos que incluyen virus, bacterias entre otros, en el caso de las garrapatas transmiten enfermedades como la Babesiosis, Ehrlichiosis, Anaplasmosis y la enfermedad de Lyme en los perros. El Rhipicephalus sanguineus, transmite enfermedades hemoparasitarias que afectan la salud y descompensa los componentes sanguíneos de nuestras mascotas. Se atribuye la Ehrlichiosis monocítica canina a una bacteria que se la nombro Ehrlichia canis, una enfermedad común en zonas tropicales y subtropicales. Estos microorganismos están presentes globalmente y afectan la salud de los animales, causando síntomas como anemia y disminución de plaquetas. Ehrlichia canis, Ehrlichia chaffeensis y Ehrlichia ewingii son las especies más comunes, y se encuentran en los leucocitos de varios mamíferos en forma de colonias compactas llamadas "mórulas". La transmisión en canidos ocurre cuando una garrapata que posteriormente se alimentó de la sangre de otro perro enfermo pica a uno sano, estos microorganismos son sensibles a las tetraciclinas. En el Cantón Ventanas, Provincia de Los Ríos, el clima tropical favorece la presencia de garrapatas, aumentando la incidencia de la Ehrlichiosis canina. Las garrapatas infectadas con Ehrlichia canis pueden transmitir la bacteria durante toda su vida. En el centro veterinario "Dr. JEFF" en Ventanas, se reciben frecuentemente perros con síntomas de Ehrlichiosis. Para confirmar la enfermedad, se recomienda a los propietarios realizar una biometría hematológica y un frotis sanguíneo para identificar el agente hemoparasitario en los leucocitos, plaquetas o eritrocitos. | es_ES |
