Did Maggy May interact in the turtle at all? While it's not common, salmonella can affect dogs, and since turtles carry it, I thought you might want to mention this to your vet. Just touching a turtle and touching something else can spread the bacteria.

What are the symptoms of salmonellosis?
The most common ones are diarrhea, fever, abdominal pain, headache and occasionally vomiting. If You Touch A Turtle, Wash Your Hands!
Hope Maggy May is feeling better soon.
