Boy, that is not fun but I hope it works..I mix 250 mgms in 10 mls of Dyne which is a thick sweet supplement. They hate the taste of metro so this works for me...I have bleached all of their toys and scrub the floor with bleach and water. They don't act sick but boy, does their poop smell..BTW, nt all have the giardia but since they all are together, I treat them all.. Sooner or later, they rest will get it....A syringe works best for me to dose them....
GLAD Bella is neg now. Maybe I will have the same luck... |
I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope they get better soon. I was going crazy bleaching Angel's pen area and washing Angel's bed, carrier, toys and blankets whenever she pooed on the tarp and trailed it, which has been many times as she mostly goes on the tarp instead of the pad. My hands are so dry from washing them so many times!
I was hoping to walk Angel outside for the first time now that I know her results are negative, but after reading your post, I'm paranoid that she may get giardia again and we'll possibly have to go through everything again.
Since her results are negative, I assume it's ok for her to meet other dogs now?
Good luck!
