Dogs don't carry Chlamydia trachomatis, the type that causes STDs in humans.
First, it's important to understand that the type of chlamydia species that affect dogs do not include the one that causes sexually transmitted disease in humans.
There are a wide variety of chlamydia bacteria, both human STDs and others. Chlamydial infections of one type or another can affect birds, cats, dogs, sheep, and humans.
Up to 50% of normal healthy dogs have been found to have antibodies to Chlamydia. There is no particular breed that has a particularly higher incidence .
Chlamydia have been suggested to cause chronic keratitis in dogs, but they are also found in the eyes of normal dogs, so the significance is not proved. Only isolated cases of infection has been reported - possibly indicating transmission from other species e.g. budgerigars.
Dogs do not get infected with chlamydia trachomatis, the chlamydia that is transmitted sexually.

Chlamydia can be a chronic or temporary disease. Ideally, a patient quickly learns about the infection and gets treatment; this treatment is completely curative and long-term infection will not occur. In addition, some patients will clear chlamydia without antibiotics, although nobody infected with chlamydia should avoid antibiotics. If chlamydia is left untreated, it can cause chronic complications, but these complications may persist after chlamydia is cleared with effective treatment. Lastly, it's possible to have untreated chlamydia for years without knowing. In that sense, chlamydia may be chronic.
