We purchased a Lhasa Apso from Parade that was filled with parasites
We purchased a Lhasa Apso from Parade. The week the puppy was to be delivered, we were informed it had coccidia which is a parasite so we waited a week so they could treat the puppy then ship the him the following week. I specificly stated that I have two other dogs and can't have a sick puppy sent to me as parasite are very contagious to other animal and humans. A week after I received the puppy the fecal result came back that he was infested with giardia which is another type of parasite. Not only did I have to treat the puppy but my other two dogs got it and it has cost me over two thousand dollars to have it treated because my other dog is older and had to be on a IV fluid with meds overnight at the vet. I now have to sterilize my furniture, floors , toys,bedding.... as the parasite can live up to a week without a host. This not only has been very costly but very time consuming with a week of work missed. I would never buy an animal from Parade. BEWARE!!!!

Unfortunately we have had no communication from Kari about any issues with her pup. So after seeing this posting we reached out to her in our message center to offer to open a Health Guarantee claim for her and provide any assistance possible. We can see that Kari read our message but will not respond. We can not help with an issue we have no knowledge of. Kari if you read this please reach out at [email protected] with all your vet documents so that Health Guarantee manager can help.
