| Vet appointment Caylee has an appointment today and I'm going to ask this, but wanted to see if anyone here knew. A coworker has Caylee's sibling and he was diganosed with coccidia, is it likely she has it as well? Her vet said yes, but is it possible he was infected at a later point?

Donating YT 10K Club Member | Coccidia is a parasite in their intestines. All puppies have it, but not all get sick. Sometimes the stress of moving to a new home will cause coccidia to show up with diarrehea. You could safely treat him with antibotics to ensure against it.

Donating YT 10K Club Member | The vet will test a sample for a variety of things...including the coccidia.
