Thank you all for your replys. Unfortunatly, lymes disease wasn't the worst of problems. Once all of the tests came back, we found that Bear was suffering from kidney failure and was put down later that day.

We miss him very much. He was 12 yearls old and adored by his two friends Cheyenne (Husky) and Spencer (golden retriever). We were able to be with him as they put him to sleep and brought him home to bury him in his favorite hunting place.
