Oh, did the breeder say why he saw the vet? Any breeders out there...is that usual? I would worry about more serious health issues....have YOUR vet check with the breeder's vet to confirm what you were told.
I have all my pups vet checked extensively before going to their forever homes, not once but several times. But, when in Texas mine were put on heartworm meds before going home, which took care of any parasites, except tapeworm, but were checked for that too..
