It stuck to my finger and since it was the middle of the night I just flipped it off my finger onto the floor. A few days later I was at the vets for ear mites (yes, she came with those too) and the vet noticed the dead tapes on her bum. One dose of meds took care of the tapes and one dose for the ear mites. I have never gotten over the fact take a worm was on my chest. |
Oh my gosh!! That must have been traumatic haha. I've been nervous to pick Logan up all morning he's just kind of sleeping at my feet right now. I called our vet and explained what's happening and they said the same thing, most likely tapes. So I'm bringing a stool sample to show him so he can confirm, and picking up some medicine from him. Poor little Logan... He's had a rough first couple of weeks here!
It really makes me wonder what kind of conditions he was living in BEFORE we got him. The breeder lead me to believe he was well taken care of but between his dirty dog syndrome with the crate, and ear mites (he had those too, really bad), and now this... UGhhh
