Question Screw Worm?

I posted last week that Kai was really sick , after a couple trips to the vet , the looked at the red lump on the belly agian , and pulled out what the belive was a screw worm ( it's really a fly in a larvae stage) (it was embedded in her skin) The vet said he had never seen anything like that on a dog that he see's it in cattle. I'm guessing she picked this up in southern colorado , when we where at the ranch , Just wondering if anyone else has ever heard of this? It sure made Kai really sick , after 4 antibodic shots and a weeks work of oral antibodic's , plus a topical cream she is fianlly herself agian!!!
