Did you have your vet give the Lyme shot? I didn't want it for my dogs and one of my vets gave it to my Doberman without my permission. A year later he got deathly ill and the tick titer was up but the shot might have done it. He was diagnosed after x-rays, spinal taps and an MRI with a fatal disease but so far is OK 3 yrs later. He can't get anymore shots tho not even rabies so he is housebound.
