Hello everyone,

A few days ago, I noticed a little blood in Meatball's stool.  It was also  softer than usual.  His appetite was the same, but he has been drinking more water than normal.  Also, his energy level decreased a little bit.  My immediate worry was Parvo.

I just got back from the vet today and it seems that Meatball has caught Giardia (thank God its not Parvo) .  More than likely it is from the meetup at Butcher Park, since this is the only public place he has gone too.

Please everyone, check if your Frenchies show any of these symptoms as well.  I would hate for anyone else to catch this parasite.  

Also be advised that it can spread to humans, too!!!!
