Giardia

[Cbrugs]

Well...I took in a fecal sample yesterday for Louie because he was due and of course I assumed it would be negative. NOPE!! Just got the call from the vet and he was positive for giardia...ugh!!!!!!! So will start treatment today and will have to treat Jax as well.

oh oh. Good Luck to big Louie and Jax.

NO!!!!!!!

That so totally sucks!

Jax has had it twice before when he was younger and both times he tested negative after he finished the first round of treatment so I am hoping I can get the same results with Louie! I know what a pain in the a$$ getting rid of giardia can be so my fingers are crossed. I don't even know where he picked it up from or when as neither dog has shown any symptoms.

Can be drinking water contaminated with feces. Make sure YOU wear gloves!!!
As you know what the vet gives you is probably what’s best out there. I just wanted to give you this link as it’s interesting... do what the vet says.....But read for maintenance.
