You should be watching for muscle weakness for sure.
The way I understand it, infection and disease are two different things. So, she could be infected or carry it and her body is fighting it but if she shows symptoms, then she would be treated. Some vets treat all positive cases though. But the question I would have to ask your vet is if he/she is testing all these dogs but only treats the ones with symptoms (which isn't necessarily bad), why did he/she waste your money on testing if she had no symptoms?
