I would say that once they have it, they should do their level best to get rid of it...and also inform the buyer that it IS possible for it to happen.
I suppose it would take a breeder to come along and comment on this one....
The pups might have JUST contacted the Giardai, and so the breeder was not aware of it and that is why she said that her pups didn't have it. I don't think she was lying, she just wasn't aware of it. I am sure she was surprised. But she hasn't said that she did a stool test on any of them since i told her that Lacy has it, and my vet said you only have to do ONE stool test on one puppy, because if one has it, they all have it. So I sure hope she tests one of them and gets them meds if they have it.
