A couple is warning other pet owners about a potentially serious parasite that can be fatal to dogs. The parasite is snail-transmitted and can be found in areas where dogs encounter freshwater or standing water, such as dog parks. The couple's four dogs contracted the parasite after visiting a park.

The park in question is Congressman Bill Archer Park. The couple is speaking out to alert other pet owners to the risk. Further details about the parasite and the couple's experience are available from the source.
