Ticks can carry a number of diseases like Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever. These are serious and potentially fatal diseases, but they are uncommon in most areas.

Yes, a tick bite can potentially cause vomiting in a dog, although it's not a direct effect of the bite itself. Ticks can transmit various diseases, such as Lyme disease or ehrlichiosis, which may lead to symptoms including vomiting. Additionally, if a dog has an allergic reaction to the tick bite or if the tick is causing significant irritation, gastrointestinal upset can occur.
