Giardia is VERY common in puppies, at least this is what my vet told me. Bella had it when she first started and they found it with a stool sample. I had to give her a powder mix in her food for 2 weeks or so and everything was fine. Giardia comes from water that either isnt cleaned daily, or water that is shared between many pups.

After the 10 days, the medicine WILL work! Don't worry, I promise everything will be okay! Keep on with the wellness food, it's some of the best you can give a puppy
