I'm not sure how old your pups are, but coccidia is rare in pups older than 6 months old, unless they've been in an area where coccodia is present (such as a kennel). Most dogs have it in their system, but it only takes over when stress occurs,such as moving to a new home. Pups older than 6 months old usually have immune systems that can handle coccidia.

Has your pup been anywhere lately where he might have picked up a germ or something?

Hope you return with good news!
