My yorkie 8 years ago had it after coming home from breeder.
She did not (hopefully) get it in my small apartment, as I had the rug cleaned and the floors I washed before she came.
The few yorkie people in Central Park made me more at ease, this unfortunately is common in litters, the pups eat each others poop. The breeders are not home to watch what is going on.....
So, she is on PANACUR and an antibiotic for 7 days.
Then I will wait one week, before RABIES,which she has not gotten yet.
she is 3.2, need to build her UP!
I am anxious about discussions of too many vacines, so I will be studying before getting other shots......
IF you puppy really has giardia, it should just pass through her system if she's healthy. I do not subject my dogs and puppies to chemicals like Panacur and antibiotics in the absence of symptoms.
