Yes I called my vet this morning and told him Poppy may have eaten a slug.
He said that there is every chance she could have the lung worm parasite and said there is a tablet to treat it.
The tablet comes in one size which is for 10kg dogs so I have to give her 1/4 of the tablet, he said after the tablet she shouldnt need any more treatment.
He has the tablet at the surgery now so I am picking it up tonight.
I am also looking into getting a pet friendly product to kill the slugs and snails in the garden, until then she will be wearing a leash when she goes potty in the garden so I can keep an eye on her.
Thanks for the concern.
