I need to get my dog (Rat Terrier) tested for Strep.
She hasn't been sick, that I know of, but my 11 year old son has been recently diagnosed with Rheumatic Fever (which is an inflammatory infection resultant from Strep)- yes I know, EXTREMELY rare (3% or less of pop. in US) and cardiologist says entire family needs to be tested INCLUDING dog, as they can carry.
My vet, any vet in my area seems to either not be capable(willing?) of doing this, or thinks it's nonsense.
So, IS IT NONSENSE? If not, can you help me find a way to test her?
