And how exactly is he supposed to see anything? I live in a town where you probably can't even get an appointment with a specialist at the Mayo Clinic if you tried, if that’s what you're implying.

Why don't you just go chat with Vet? I'm sure he'll give you all the expert advice you could possibly need.

He handed me some sulfaguanidine tablets. He told me myself to give one tomorrow and then another one in maybe one or two months. I can't help but wonder if these are even legitimate medications. To make matters worse, he wouldn't give me a straight answer regarding whether I can take anything else after finishing this course, which has left me feeling rather agitated.

Austin James5, I’ve already asked you once to take this kind of stuff over to the Pet forum. This isn't the place for those questions.

Well, here we go. I was out pumping water from my own well today when my dog leaned over and dropped a few hairs directly into the water. To make matters worse, the vet just informed me that my dog is apparently 100% positive for tapeworms. What am I supposed to do now? Is it actually possible for those... parasites... to transfer from hair into the water supply? My God, how could I have been so careless? -.-. Apparently, based on the symptoms, he’s been carrying this thing for quite some time. They suggested I should go see a doctor myself, but my primary concern right now is the water. I have about 150 gallons sitting in this well; I can't exactly dump the whole thing, can I? Is there any way to prevent this? Maybe I could toss some stupid tablets into the well to kill off those damn larvae? Please, I need some advice quickly—I've already been drinking this water all day.
