Abstract

20 healthy dogs and 20 Ehrlichia affected dogs were selected for present study. These healthy and Ehrlichia affected dogs were subjected for various hematological parameters like Total RBC count, Total leucocyte count, Haemoglobin, Platelet count and PCV. Haematological analysis of blood samples revealed that there was a significant decrease in HB, Total erythrocyte count, Packed cell volume, platelet levels in the affected dogs compared to healthy dogs whereas there was a non-significant difference in total leucocyte count in the affected dogs compared to healthy dogs.
