I have a 9 lb 4-year-old female toy poodle named Sophie who tested positive for anaplasmosis but is symptom-free. She is on 100 mg of Doxycycline once a day for 30 days. She has been on the medication for 14 days now and has lost her appetite and is less active than usual. Is this dosage appropriate, and what should I do about her decreased appetite and activity level?
