Doxy is the go to for most vets. Imizol is typically used to treat babesiosis it is not an antibiotic but many vets have found it to be beneficial in treating anaplasmosis in dogs along with the doxycycline though I do not believe it is labeled for it's use yet. As with any medication there can be side effects so all should be used with caution and monitored. As someone else mentioned Doc Allahada on here will have the most info on the imizol shot as part of treatment pros and cons.
A huge portion of hunting dogs exposed to ticks will test positive for various tick disease but especially ehrlichiosis. Most will show no symptoms of the disease and many who have went through treatment can relapse any time their immune system is compromised. Tick borne illineses like to hide and make treatment that actually eradicates the disease difficult. Keeping dogs healthy with a strong immune system is the best defense and a good preventative program of ticks.
