I took my 7.5 month little lady to the Vet on 4/13 to have several of her baby teeth extracted. I know this can be stressful to our little ones - Especially, after having 16 toofers removed at once! Well, her stools have been exceptionally loose since the procedure...Even turned watery with traces of blood. So, I called the Vet and he promptly put her on "Hifactor" dog food. All this has done is make her stools the consistency of cooked wheat germ. This has been ongoing for three days now. My neighbor who is a Vet Tech says it sounds like Giardia

- So, now not only am I concerned for my little lady but wondering where on earth she could have contracted it from if this is the case.

She went into the Vet's office seemingly healthy and parasitic free. Should I give things a little more time to work through her system or should I put in another call?
