If you deworm her regularily there should be no problem.  The only
thing I can think of is perhaps a case of fleas or tapeworms,
etc....but deworming takes care of that.  You'll notice there might be
a problem if her coat begins to get a little dull.

Toby looks like he'll like hunting gophers, he's certainly been
practising in my flower beds.
