I have never heard that dog's ticks have killed any dog in the past. But there's a possibility that it's something that can happen if the infestation gets too much. Although, it's something that can be noticed immediately unless it's with a homeless dog.

The fatality rate is very small of about 5%. It's something that's very much preventable when it comes to one's dog's getting killed by ticks. Although  Chronic canine ehrlichiosis is capable of killing one's dog if not detected sooner. 

I have never seen it or heard that ticks caused a dog's death. Yes, they can make it to be very discomforting for the dog with all the itches but it can't kill a dog. 

This is my first time of hearing about this inquiry if ticks  can cause a dog to die. It's going to be vampire kind of ticks that would be capable of doing that. 

If their effects is too severe, it's capable of killing a dog because they are parasite that lives heavily on blood. The excessive loss of blood from the ticks, will kill the dog gradually. 

Ticks can't kill a dog. They may affect the dogs general health but not to the extent of killing the dog. If ticks kills a dog, then there's another thing that caused the death of the dog and not just the ticks. 

Though I haven't heard about Ticks killing a dog but ticks are very harmful especially when they are not prevented and controlled. If it's left untreated for a long time, it can lead to respiratory failure and which will cause a dog's death.

It's good to inspect our dogs for ticks and seek proper care when we notice any severe reactions.

This is a question I hear a lot and one I have looked into myself in the past too. Ticks can not kill a dog but they can be annoying for the dog and can also reduce their quality of life. 

If you know or believe that your dog has ticks, it's best to get them seen by a vet as soon as you can.
