We do not know but this is a good question to ask my vet. He did say dogs carry this in their intestines and when they get stressed the campylobacter takes over. She seems fine now but has to go through the medicines. Also undercooked chicken,poultry, or how some food is prepared can give them this. He said it is very common with dogs especially little ones. I am glad I took her poop in right away and got on top of it. I feel better now that she is playing with her toys and she is such an angel taking her meds. If you come up with any good ideas let me know. Susan
