Lisa Vanderpump's Famous Dog Foundation Sued After Allegedly Selling Worm-Infested Puppy To Woman Who Began Expelling Eggs From Her 'Vagina And Anus'

Lisa Vanderpump's famous dog rescue foundation is being sued after allegedly selling a worm-infested dog that later infected its owner.
According to legal documents, a woman claims she visited Vanderpump Dogs located in West Hollywood, CA in July 2019.
She ended up falling in love with a dachshund puppy named Cassie.
The woman alleges Vanderpump's staff ensured her it was okay to hold and play with Cassie, despite the dog not yet getting her deworming treatment.
She claims her adoption was approved the very next day but says workers faked the dog's immunization records. The woman also claims they told her Cassie had been dewormed and even provided a certification.
In the documents, the pet owner alleges Vanderpump Dog employees promised she was getting a "puppy in healthy condition."
The woman claims Cassie began to act strangely as soon as they got home and scooting across the floor.
She says the dog began "expelling large live worms while defecating."
According to the documents, the woman claims she called Vanderpump Dogs without success. She alleges she took the dog to a pet hospital and Cassie was treated serious worm infection.
What allegedly happened next is disgusting, to say the least.
While the dog got treated, the woman ended up allegedly contracting the intestinal parasites.
Over the next few days, she claims she began feeling sick, and here's the grossest part ...
The woman alleges she began expelling "live worms and eggs from her mouth, vagina and anus."
She says she was diagnosed with intestinal parasites. She also says she was forced to get strong medication because of the seriousness of the parasite infection.
The female alleges she's been beyond traumatized from the emotional ordeal and claims she suffers from nightmares because of it.
She is suing Lisa's Vanderpump Dog Foundation -- which was heavily publicized on her show, Vanderpump Rules -- for negligence and fraud.
