My friend called today and said that she is having a problem with her Yorkie. Her Yorkie is 7 months old. Anyway, her Yorkie is pretty much infested with fleas...and she can't figure out why. She has tried everything, Frontline, etc. And she bathes her once a week. She lives out in the country, but doesn't let her Yorkie go outside at all (fleas being the very reason) as she is trained to go potty on a puppy pad.
Anyway - here's the GROSS part. Last night when her and her husband were getting ready to go to bed, she noticed that there was an area on her sheets, which at first she thought might be "flea dust". However, when they looked closer, they noticed that it wasn't flea dust at all. They got a magnify glass to get an even closer look and they discovered that it was TEENY TINY little WORMS!!!! She said they had little legs and everything and were moving all around. I couldn't understand how "tiny" she was trying to tell me they were, so she explained to me that these things are so tiny that they look like DUST! She got a piece of tape and gathered some of them onto that and took it to the vet this morning so that he will be able to tell her what the heck it is. But I thought I would come here and ask if anyone might know what in the world this could be. We are totally baffled! And of course she is SUPER DUPER GROSSED OUT!!!!!
I would totally lose it if I saw something like that IN MY BED! OMG...worms are NOT my thing!! I would have to go and buy all new bedding omg..
Anyway, if anyone has ANY suggestions as to what the heck this might be (she still hasn't heard back from the vet yet...) PLEASE let me know!! Thanks bunches.
P.S.- Some of you may know which friend I am talking about...she posts on YT as "TonTon". She is the one that bought Kahlua (her Yorkie) from a Puppymill (she didn't even know it was one) and her puppy had Parvo. Anyway, this is the friend that I'm referring to!!
