O: my 10 week unvaccinated puppy is experiencing diarrhea. I like taking it on walks around town and he was acting like he didn’t want to go today. I want an appointment.
Me: we can certainly get them in for an urgent exam today. Based off the symptoms described we will want to perform a parvo test outside in the car to rule out parvo before bringing them inside for an exam.
O: it’s not parvo, I googled it. Just so you know he is not experiencing any bloody diarrhea, vomiting, and he’s still eating. Those are symptoms of parvo.
Me: yes, I know. Sometimes only one or two symptoms present at the beginning. We would just like to rule that out.
O: I’m just going to monitor because he doesn’t have parvo then.
O later left a review stating that their dog had parvo that was diagnosed by another clinic and we never did anything about it.
