Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | spayed | 7 years and 2 months old | 45 lbs
My dog has been prescribed antibiotics (Synulox) as a preventative measure for a cut paw pad. Today I gave her the first pill, but she was being fussy so I wrapped the pill in a very small amount of supermarket bought Norwegian smoked salmon. I then found out that salmon can contain parasites that are harmful for dogs. On the package it says not to refreeze because it has already been frozen, so I assume it has been treated for parasites but just wanted to double-check with a Vet. Thank you.
