My asymptomatic dog recently tested positive for Lyme disease on the snap test. His urinalysis is fine, and his Quant C6 level is 85. I am choosing not to treat him immediately and will monitor for symptoms, repeating the titre in 8-12 weeks. What is the average time frame for symptoms to appear after exposure, and if his titre level drops below 30 and he remains asymptomatic, can I assume he will stay symptom-free?

My Cavalier King Charles Poodle mix, Brizzle, has been throwing up since this afternoon. The vomit is foamy and contains no food. He ate an Invisalign retainer two days ago and has been in the kennel all day. He is up to date on all shots. What should I do?
