Did you see the same report I did ???

Here it is in case anyone wants to see it - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNOoFyfTdoM

Inside Edition bought a puppy that was susposed to be 11 weeks old ...they vets estimated the puppy they received to be 5 MONTHS old

The poor dog they shipped had Giardia...which btw - IS contageous to humans - not to mention, makes the poor puppy feel miserable

Giardia in Dogs
Giardia is a single-celled parasite that lives in your dog?s intestine. It infects older dogs but more frequently infects puppies. Dogs become infected when they swallow Giardia that may be present in water or other substances that have been soiled with feces.

How will Giardia affect my dog?
Giardiasis, the disease caused by Giardia infection, usually results in diarrhea. Some animals with giardiasis may also throw up. Having giardiasis a long time can cause weight loss; generally poor condition; and even death, when the disease is serious
