So here is my dilemna, the pet store I got her at offers 6 weeks free obedience classes, plus a free grooming. The classes would start next month, I am very hesitant about taking her back there for both free offers because of everything that has happened. What are your thoughts on this?
glad shes feeling better; i am sure the vet gave meds to treat the giardia. they usually prescribe metronidazole.
i wouldn't take her to the classes; giardia is very contagious and if you dont' treat it properly she can reinfect herself, other dogs and possibly humans. she needs to get 100 percent well first; giardia free.
