The vet told me to keep an eye out for tapeworm in her poo. I'm not really sure what to do, I don't see anything in her poo that seems white and swiggly like the vet said.
Has anyone experienced anything similar with their yorkies?
Thanks in advance for any adivce or suggestions! |
My yorkies do that a lot. We call it hellicoptering, because they do it in circles! We have gotten their anal sacs drained, but it is a constant thing, ongoing. The vet says they can get infections if they don't get drained regularly, but I tend not to take them all of the time. My one yorkie has it bad, and she gets so nervous when I take her to the vet, so I don't take her that often. My bad.
