Hoping vets and owners nationwide will take notice, not just us houndie people! We have a problem with people NOT picking up their poo around here.

The drug referred to in the article is in Profender for Cats.

“Personally, I would not take my dog to a dog park,” Kaplan said. “If your dog picks up these resistant hookworms, it’s not as easy as just treating them with medication anymore. Until new types of drugs are available, taking your dog to a dog park has to be considered a risky activity.”
