Giardia Concerns! Input please... I bought my 3 month old puppy Nyla at a local yorkie breeder, 1 week and 3 day ago. Ever since I got her she has had diahrea and mucus looking feces. I took her to the vet and returned with a feces sample, it was positive for Giardia. I met with the breeder and she gave my pup medicine (Fenbendazole) and to give her .8ml/cc once daily for 7 days, then to repeat in 2 weeks. It's been about three days of using the medicine now. I pick up the feces rite away after she goes and wipe he bum, she still drags her bum across the carpet. She eats 3 times a day little amount everytime. I'm feeding her (Nutra Ultra puppy w/ some rice mixed in) Should I try another source of food while she is sick?? The smell is HORRIBLE and she goes about 10x a day. I'm worried the medicine the breeder gave me isn't the rite stuff. I wanna believe her sine she takes care of yorkie's all day everyday but i'm not sure. Please let me know what ya'll think, and feel free to ask questions! thankx everyone!
