my lab puppy can't walk after removing a tick from his leg

LABABAO

Hi, I just found my 25 days old lab puppy can not stand up and walk yesterday, so I checked his legs, and found & removed one tick from his back left leg, the tick was on his toe of back left leg. But today he still can not stand up & walk, just lied down there.

Could someone please advise me what wrong with my puppy? What should I do now? Should I separate this puppy with others to prevent the possible spreading of the tick?(i have 6 puppy)

Please help! Thank you!

Check the other puppies for ticks. If they have them, pull them.The heads of the tick will back right out if you put a cotton ball with alcohol on the tick before removing it. The pup that had the tick might just have a sore foot from the tick. Give it a couple days, and call the vet. They give info over the phone, too.
