Poor baby. when my bronki was so ill i felt so bad for him. I Hope she isn't going to be uncomfortable long. I have experienced more then one receptionist like that.grrrrrrrrrrrrrr maybe you can all around for some second opinions, I wish i could remember what type of hookworm it was that Charlie had. What ever it was it didn't respond the way they were suppose to. He was the sickest little puppy, at one point my vet didn't think he was going to pull through. I was just a teenager so that was way too long ago to recall the details.
