urge to herd Posted May 12, 2011 Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 We got Gibbs' was diagnosied last week with a stool sample, then Shonie started with diarrhea a couple days ago. I took a stool sample of hers in yesterday and just got the message from the vet. I'll talk to him tomorrow. Gibbs has been taking metronidazole and fenbenedazole since Saturday. I looked up coccidia and all of what I saw was about puppies. Does anyone have any experience/wisdom to share about coccidia in older dogs? Shonie's always been one to snack on her walks, and we're stopping that. Poor old girl, I wonder if her weight loss could have been the coccidia? Her appetite remains very good! Our yard is basically dirt. Is there any controlling agent I can use out there? I'll pick up meds for her tomorrow. Sigh. We made it 8 months without a vet visit. That's a record for us over the last 4 years. Thanks! Ruth Ruth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
