Have I ever "resolved a similar situation," you ask? Yikes, no!! It is APPALLING that a DVM would say such a thing--and even scarier if that so-called vet actually believes he's right. Could you *politely* suggest that woman get some info on vetmed.com or a similar health site? It just is NOT difficult to get educated about this subject these days. Both of them have their heads so far into the sand it's sad. And dangerous.
