The vet mentioned that some dogs can be constant carriers of this parasite. I know there are other threads on this but didn't see anything on puppies being treated more than twice and STILL having it She has no side effects really but I hate the thought of these nasty little things in her!! Also my vet (the VCA) in MA is charging me $50 per sample... normal?? Thanks for your thoughts!!

Hi there... I live on the cape! I have a 6 month old yorkie. We got her in Dec also!!! Small world!
