I purchased a cockapoo in October 2008. Upon receiving her at the airport, I thought she felt rather emaciated, as her spine, hips, and ribs could be felt though her fur. After I had her checked by my vet, he agreed. Her stool specimen showed she was infested with hookworm and she was so grossly infested with giardia, the vet said "This dog shouldn't be alive." We have treated her with medications and have gone through 3 rounds and she is still infested with giardia as of today. We are trying something else now. I love her and will help her though this, but I should have known better than to support a puppy mill. (Which I didn't know at the time of purchase that this is what they are.)
