If I have any questions I'll be sure and send ya a PM, I've written your YT screen name down so I can hunt ya down if need be as I'm just terrible at remembering names. Oh I'm sure a pup from clean places can get it as well (from what I've read), it's just that the conditions Maggy May came from attributed so much to all the problems she's had so far and had the lady actually took care of all the animals she had, she'd have KNOWN her dogs were sick and needed treatment. But, sadly that wasn't the case and now Maggy May has had to go through so much because of her ignorance.
