[kyser]

When our choc. lab (Kyser) passed away this summer, our vet said he thought it was probably e-coli or salmonila. Severe vomiting, bloody diareaha, very high temp, and some loss of muscle function in hind legs, were the obvious signs.

Now, when we picked up our new pup, Kobi, we were discussing this with the breeder and she said she would question the vet's knowledge since she believes that dogs can carry these viruses and fight them without any problems so long as they are otherwise healthy.

So, who do we believe? Do we search out another vet. I have not researched this out yet as I have little time to spend in front of this screen.... with a new pup and all and a backlog of "honey- do " things.

We really like this vet as he is very compassionate and reasonably priced. We have few other choices.
