Hi Darryn, I googled 'klebsiella pneumoni and canine' and came up with this article, among others. Apparently cattle, horses, goats and dogs can be affected, although not in quite the same way.

Klebsiella Pneumoni in Dogs article

Well, dogs can carry strep throat, why not klebsiella?

Hi, Darryn:

Yes, and dogs can get AS when on the Purina/grain based diet.

Funny thing is, the dogs with AS get better on a raw/meat only diet, despite the physicians who want to call diet a "placebo."

Hi John,
could it be that worms in the raw meat eat the klebsiella bacteria from the dogs bowel, dealing with the bacterial infestation?
Kind Regards

Darryn,
Some years ago there was a young woman who under a doctors care, ingested worm egg, knowing they would live for a certain time and then be expelled. Specific worm.
In several mountain communities years ago, ghirradia was being carried in the feces of dogs, when people were walking thier pets along the fresh water supply.
Good question, we have some very capable people who will give us the answers.

Hey, Darryn:

No, since not all raw meat actually contains worms--HOPEFULLY, most of it does not but I'm not eating steak Tartar until I get my microscope out!

that worm egg, well it sounds like:

Helminthic therapy

interesting....

we feed all four of our dogs B.A.R.F. (Biologically Appropriate Raw Food)

I wish I'd been on the panel when they decided the name for that particular product!

I think you could post at thier Web, sire and probably offer some sound business advice.
thanks for the tip
Say, ah Dow, would you ingest some of those gubbers to get better? just thinking..
