Canine ehrlichiosis, caused by the bacteria Ehrlichia, is primarily transmitted through tick bites. While there is limited research on the transmission of this disease during pregnancy, there is some evidence that the bacteria can be passed from an infected mother to her puppies, potentially through the placenta or during nursing. However, the primary concern remains the transmission through ticks rather than vertical transmission during pregnancy. It's important for pregnant dogs to be monitored and treated for tick-borne diseases to protect their health and that of their offspring.
