Ain't so cute....

Awww....honey, look at the baby deer! Isn't she sweet?

NO. She isn't.

She carries parasites....fleas, ticks, germs, and lots of other YUCK.

So my dog's intestinal parasite is caused from an infected deer. Deer come in our front yard almost nightly.....and leave a huge pile of mess to clean up.

I think Shorty and I may sit on our porch tonight. He can use his bow and arrow and I will use the shotgun....I'm not good enough at aiming to use the bow.

Goin' huntin.

To be more specific...the parasite isn't a worm with teeth or anything...it is a single cell organism that invades their stomachs.

Lovely.

So, I get to put this powder business on her food, inject banana flavored liquid down her throat, and stuff a pill wrapped in cheese in her mouth...all 2 times a day.

Sounds fun!

She is better....we are glad...and so is she.

Deer jerky, anyone?
