[nagdu] Giardia

[Hannah Chadwick]

Nicole,
They did not. I was not aware what they were treating Princess for at the
time and was told that some dogs get it from being in the kennels. I did not
ask questions, and I thought the pills cured it so I didn't worry about
anything. The vet only gave her a raby's shot, and gave us a talk about all
the diseases dogs can get.

There is another possibility that none of you have considered that happens
with humans as well as dogs and with all kinds of viruses and things. 
Sometimes, the normal dose of medicine is given for the normal amount of
time, but, for whatever reason, it is not enough to cure the problem. I
would be more concerned if there were more Pilot graduates going home with
sick dogs. Also, Hannah, on the last vet visit before you left Pilot, did
they check again?
