I know yesterday the vet did say that she had to come back in 2-weeks to be retested for something because sometimes it does not show up in the puppies stool. Does coccidia cause diarrhea, and blood/mucous? Is it fatal? Can it be cured? Thank you
Sorry that she is still not feeling better. Coccidia is what my puppy came to us with and had all of what you are saying. However, change in diet can also cause these syptoms. I hope you hear from the vet soon. I would think that if they had tested for it, they would have given you the results already. You could take in another sample just to cover all bases.
