I told her I would think about it because she said she didn't know if it was contagious, but she said it was nothing bad. Anything with a name like that can't be good. So I wanted to do some research. She said it would go away with the medicine. I am ify because I already bought a dog once that I brought home with parvo from a breeder. What do you guys think?
Coccidia is easily treated with albon BUT the reason I would not get the puppy is the breeder showed a lack of knowledge about this and if it was contagious. I am sure any reputable breeder would fully understand what this is IMHO.
