What tests were done? Some tests can come back negative and the disease is still there, this is especially true with certain tick born ailments such as Lymes and Erlichia. There are more advanced tests that can be done so if your current vet isn't helping, perhaps it's time to find a new vet or take the dog to a veterinary collge in your area to be seen.
