Not that I'll even be able to, even though I /want/ to, and my dog died last year, March 29th, but I'm just curious...
My dog, Strider had heartworms. The vet said that he had VERY little. So little that it almost didn't show up on the test. He was also young (2 1/2) The vet only gave us ONE option (the series of 3 shots over a few month.) Later, I found out that worms can be treated with Heartguard or even surgically removed. He also gave me some pills for strider. I had to give him one in the am, and one in the pm, everyday. I've never heard of pills going with this treatment. What were they even for? So, then my mom called TWICE within one week saying that Strider was breathing too hard, and the receptionist just said, "That's normal". Strider was breathing WAY too hard, mum told her, but again, she said "it's normal" So, after 2 weeks on treatment, Strider died from suffocation. Could they get sued for this? The vet didn't explain any other options & just said to keep him calm.
