The staph infection is around a small black area (looks like ground in dirt, but is NOT) he is rarely outside and only with me on a leash. He's had these little spots coming up on his belly for several months. I can scrape them off gently with my nail, but one of them left a scar. The Vet still can't tell me what these black spots are. Anybody???? |
I see your point, I did not realize it was in pill form. I would most definitely call the vet back and voice your concerns. I would not give him the entire pill. It look to me like the vet made a major mistake. I am glad you caught it. Once I had a vet prescribe some medication but the vet tech filling the prescription used the wrong dosage but they caught it before I got the medicine. Please let me know what you find out.
