- How To Get Rid Of Giardia In Dogs. I Cured My Frenchie! Giardia is a microscopic parasite that causes the diarrheal illness known as giardiasis. Giardia (also known as Giardia intestinalis, Giardia lamblia, or Giardia duodenalis) is found on surfaces or in soil, food, or water that has been contaminated with feces (poop) from infected humans or animals.

"Giardia intestinalis infection is a common cause of diarrhoea in humans and other mammalian species throughout the world. This report describes a case of a dog suffering from diarrhoea, infected with G. intestinalis, effectively treated with azithromycin. Azithromycin is an azalide, semisynthetic macrolide antibiotic having a large spectrum of activity against bacterial pathogens and some protozoa. In this case, Giardia infection in a dog was confirmed by microscopic examination and PCR. Sequencing of the detected Giardia amplicon confirmed infection with assemblage A-I. The dog received azithromycin administered at dose of 10 mg/kg per os, once a day for 5 days. After the therapy, the diarrhoea stopped. Effectiveness of the treatment was also confirmed by PCR and microscopic examination. This is the first report on the therapy of canine giardiosis with azithromycin. It seems that azithromycin can be considered as promising antibiotic for the control of Giardia infection in dogs."

How To Get Rid Of Giardia In Dogs | I Cured My Frenchie!

My coworker has a puppy with horrible diarrhea and tested positive for Giardia. After months of therapy and a lot of tears nothing worked until I found your UA-cam video. My friends vet was skeptical but ordered Azithromycin and it immediately worked!! So thankful for YOU!
That makes me so happy!! :) I'm so glad it worked for your pup as well! ❤
I'm literally crying watching this... Our pup is only 9 weeks and we found out he's positive. We've only had him for 2 weeks, got him from a rescue. We took him to the vet and today they called and said he is positive for Giardia and they found cysts as well.
WOW....such a revelation!! I have been dealing with this for months due to my 5yrs old Rottweiler eating cat feces. She has NEVER been sick in her life until now.... Thank you....
I’m sorry your little fur baby was sick for so long. He has wonderful parents that love and care for him so well.💖
My Frenchie, Harry, passed about a month ago. He was the same color and looked a lot like your Frenchie.💝
Harry passed from natural causes. He was home with loved ones. He wasn’t with strangers in a strange place.
I thank God for that blessing and I’m so grateful.🙏🏻🐶💖
I sure miss my Harry…💔
You may want to look into good probiotics and other things for your Frenchie. I know the type of meds he was on can be hard on the digestive system and for so long.
A good canine chiropractor, especially for Frenchies, is something I wish someone would have told me of when I got Harry.
A good chiropractor to keep your Frenchie aligned when he’s young is important. If he’s kept in alignment he will have less or no issues when he gets older. Unlike some older Frenchie do.
Our chiropractor is in Northridge one day a week at Northridge Animal Medical Center on Reseda Blvd. She’s in different areas during the week. So maybe she might be closer to you in a different day? Her fee is fair and she doesn’t “over treat” like some chiropractors.
I’ve had better luck with vets that use “natural” cures or treatments first, before medication. Plus any vaccines needed are “mercury free” and they don’t cost more.
There’s the top Vet on UA-cam and he uses natural cures and treatments for his clients and he is fantastic! He will answer your questions if he sees them too.
He has a lot of great videos about things that are so simple and cost much less than supplements. He does a lot of preventative care with simple foods too.
Hi Julia! Very informative video how many grams of Azithromycin do you use per dog pound?
Julia, thank you so much for your video, we are experiencing “EXACTLY” the same problem, like everything you said in the video, has happened for us for about 3 months and our girl still has the problem. I have 2 questions: first, do we need to get the Azitromisin from a vet or we can get it over the counter? And second, how should we use Ammonia for washing everything (like should we add some to the washing machine while we’re washing everything)?
That was very informational. Thank you
Thank you for watching!
Can you please do a video talking step by step about how you cleaned with thr ammonia and how to use it safely? It won’t discolor your fabrics or damage your washing machine? Did you use it to clean the crate and floors? That would be super helpful, if you’re able to share. Thanks for talking about your experience with this!
I am grateful to find your video. I have my new pup less than a week and find out she is Giardia positive. We are a few days in and I am already beside myself. She has trained so well I’m only a few days. But this parasite is making the joy disappear. She is eating her poop when we turn for a moment, it’s like she holds it until she is alone just to feast 😩😩😩.
She just finished 5 day treatment. Now we wait 2 weeks and treat again, but after watching your experience I will have a chat with vet.
I have noticed within 48 hours her bones are showing through her flesh. She is only 3 lbs so I am fearful her health will suffer.
OMG you helped me a lot. Thank you very much ♥♥♥
Thank you for sharing your experiences.
Thank you for watching!
Hi Julia
Thanks for sharing your experience and tips to fight giardia.
My dog may have it and it's not really easy specially the cleaning part
I'll try to get the same med you got for yours and hopefully it will help.
I notice in the video 0'25 you are using a brush for your dog hairs do you still have the reference of it ?
Thank you so much for this advice.
Of course :)
I am so thankful to find this video!!! Our dog has been through two treatments for Giardia and is still positive. So going into a third round, we need to figure out other solutions! Thank you thank you!!!
I hope it will work for your pup! Fingers crossed! :)
Hi Julia.. I have a question.. did you clean everything with Ammonia after the treatment or before? Or were you just doing it every other day and or weekend?
Thank you so much for your great help. I believe video will help many out there who struggle with same. My Diego english bulldog is positive and he is getting his first treatment. I would like to ask about dosage and number of days you gave your dog Azithromycin
Could you please write the name on the medicine and what you washed your things in. Thanks 🙏🏻
Thank you for making this video . Our puppy has giardia and the blood in stool has been getting more of a nightmare . Gonna try to ask the vet for azythromicin
Thankyou for such an informative video......ive been breeding for years....and this was very helpful....
🐶❤
Thank you for watching! ❤️
Thank you so much I appreciate this
Thank you for watching!
That dog is so adorable
Thank you, Yasmin☺️😘❤️
All good 😘❤️
thank you very much for posting this - we have recently got a puppy who had it and has now spread it to our other dog. We will certainly look into Azythomycin and also thank you for the ammonia tip - we have been using bleach so far. We will get there though!
I need to tell my dr if he can give my girl the Azthromycin her symptoms ( bloody poop, weight loss )are the same as your baby ... and supposedly she had it before. ... so I’m hoping that will clear her ... thank you so much I’m glad i came across your video ......
Thank-you for your informative post
Thank you!
Wow this is a great video. Thank you.
Glad you liked it! Thank you! :)
@@JuliaCaban I asked my vet and he gave me the antibiotic you mentioned. Unfortunately we don't have ammonia for cleaning where I am currently living outside of the us, as it can be used to make 💣, but I qm really hopeful that this antibiotic will make the difference 🙏🙏🙏
Did is help your pup
Aleluya 😇 You are a blessing just called my vet and suggested this
Wonderful!:)
Did it help?
@@DB-sm8le no the vet would not provide switch vets but was given same med but in liquid. 7 months later free of Giardia but now he has GI intestinal issues. Thanks for asking.
Thank you very much. I don't know why the Vet's can not get it right, take care.
thanks for sharing
Tnank you for this video. My frenchi has giardia. We are treating her with ferdidazole, but she is on day 5 and still has diaria. I ordered azithromycin, but the dosage you mentioned above is a little bit confusing. Does the azithromycin need to be administered at dose of 10 mg per kilogram of the body?
Hi Thank you so much for such a informative video! Today my pup who is 8 months old got diagnosed with Giardia!! After I saw your video I got scared and little relieved also! Thank goodness I landed on your video. I had no idea it is that dangerous! My pup is 54 lbd and has been prescribed same medication you mentioned. Let me see if after 10 days if he is cured but god forbids, if he has the infection, how much azithromycin should have been given!! Or you have any other ratio!! Thank you in advance!!
Thanks for sharing this, we have been fostering a dog with a view to adopt & it turns out he has this.. I am SO not looking forward to all the cleaning, but at least he is only pooping outside!
Just found your video thank you so much my Aussie is 6 months old and yesterday all day he was having diarrhea I also thought it was stress because we were in a road trip when we starting happening but today it kept going. Took him to the vet and it was positive for giardia, I’ll ask my vet about Azithromycin and see what he says
Hi were you offered tinidazole?
Thank you so much!!!!!!!
You're welcome!:)
Thanks!
Thank you!
Did this medicine work for you
Hi. We found out few months ago our pup has/had giardia and are struggling to get her back to normal, if we was to recommended az do you think they would do it ? Also where did you get the cleaning products from, do you wash her things every day ?
How long of treatment did you do with the antibiotic
We have a Cairn Terrier who was diagnosed with giardia at around 3 months old. He did eat his own poop as well but was fine at the time with no loose stools. We went through one round of treatment and tested again with a positive result. So we thought the vet was probably taking us for a ride because he showed no symptoms... After a few months, when he was 10 months old, he pooped some dark green gooey stuff one night. He was in so much pain that he yelped. His immune system took a toll as well. He had reactive lymphocytes symptoms, big bumps all over his body... We don't know for sure if that's caused by giardia but it certainly doesn't help with his health condition. Last week, he pooped liquid with fresh blood. I freaked out and felt so hopeless until I watched your video! We'll request our vet to prescript Azithromycin. Hopefully I can update good results as well. Thank you so much for sharing your experience!!
What happened to your puppy any updates
Update?
So insightful I been battling multiple treatments with my French Bulldog with giardia 💔 with no luck I had the vet send in this medicine I just got it today and I hope it cures this 💔 thank you so much
Fingers crossed it will help your pup too! I just got a message from another person saying that they finally cured their dog from giardia after a year and azitromycin helped!! 😊
Did it work?
My German Shepherd pup had Giardia. 2 treatments with the vet's antibiotics and she still came up positive. After watching your video I told our vet that I wanted her on the azythromycin. He said he had never used it for giardia, but gave it a try. Her next poop test 4 weeks later came back negative. My vet said "you cannot argue with these results". So I want to thank you for posting this video. It saved my baby from more rounds of antibiotics, that probably would only have had a negative effect on her poor "little" gut bacteria.
I’m so happy to hear that!!! I’m glad you shared your story with me :) that was my hope for this video - I wanted people to find a better solution than multiple antibiotics treatments that have serious side effects on those little puppies. Thank you, Tess! ❤️
How long did the treatment with azithromycin continue? In the description of the video i saw it continues 5 days. Is this enough according to your experience?
@@lokotron33 she was on it for 2 weeks.
@@tess5213 Ok, and when did you notice the first indications that your dog is getting better? Thanks a lot!
@@lokotron33 her stool was getting more formed and wasn't as soft anymore. I would still take a stool sample to the vet to have the puppy checked after treatment, just to be sure.
Hello! can i ask for the regimen and dosing of azithromycin?
Thanks a lot. My frenchie unluckily have this :( but after that video I feel better
Glad I could help!
I was talking to my vet today, and found out that a lot of times, there's a false-positive of giardia when the animal actually has another parasite called crypotosporidium. It must look almost identical on a fecal test, and symptoms are the same. The treatment for crypo is...Azithromycin.
I'm wondering if your vet consistently mistook your dog's crypo as giardia and never thought it might be something else, despite the giardia treatment failing to work. That's on him; it's okay for a doctor not to know everything, but he should have asked for a specialist in giardia after the first failed attempt. I'm glad you got the right meds to do the job regardless.
ZOAFIN works for all and 3 days was negative
@@brian8616 Azithromycin sounds like an antibiotic...is it?
Omg thank you for this. My baby has it, I hope it doesn’t come back. If it does I want to try that. Thank you!!!!
I was waiting for you to mention diatomaceous earth because i mentioned it in my search. Anyhow, i had giardia issue for years. Metronidazole was completely useless and i think was only damaging to their internal organs. I have 6 cats and it is impossible to clean home of something microscopic so i found something i hope that will help us recover and keep it at bay. I give diatomaceous earth to all of my cats and so far they stopped having runny stool and vomiting. I add DE to their biscuits and drinking water on regular basis and give capsuls dipped into coconut oil by mouth.
I tried DE and it did nothing for Tortellino:( He started having blood in his stool after introducing DE so I had to stop the treatment. It’s possible the DE I had was not the best quality but I picked the one that was safe for internal use.
Julia Caban May I ask what DE you used? All this additional information is also useful.
I am using food grade DE that has good reviews, link below. Using the correct DE is essential because the size of particles must be close to the size of bacteria.

Hi whats the dosage of Azithromycin and how kong youve given it?
Thank you so much I was just about to purchase a puppy with this condition she said he had been on antibiotics and his poop tested clear but I was to scared to buy him because I would have been heartbroken if it came back or my other pets got infection.Xx
Hi wendy did you get your puppy after?
you are both very cute
we got our 5 month shepherd mix from a local shelter. she had been diagnosed Giardia 2 months ago. after 2-3 rounds of antibiotic treatment, even test negative, her diarrhea is still on and off, so I know none of the medications worked. The vet recommend us to do a PCR screen for my puppy, which cost over $300. we already spent a lot for vet visit, can not afford it anymore, so we refused. me and my son have to supervise the pup overnight because she would poop 3-8 times(no poop during daytime weird). it made us extremely tired and desperate. We want to treat her by ourselves, happy to find this video. did some research online, said azithromycin could cause some side effects, such as vomitting, diarrhea etc. so a little scared to use it on our puppy. Anyone knows if puppies will outgrow Giardia? any suggestion? THANKS A LOT
I worder if would it workfor cats? Azitromicin
White vinegar is a great disinfectant. You can also try presoak fabrics with some vinegar. The acid in vinegar crosses the bacteria’s cell membrane, prompting a release of protons, which causes the cell to die.
That’s a great tip! Thank you for sharing :)
What about apple vinegar? Would that Work too? Does that kill it?
@@bevahidsguests8736 yes
Ive been dealing with this and yes those same treatments were given to us. And my frenchie would have really bad diarrhea his anus started to come out and we had to pay tons of money for surgery 😭 i will definitely be looking into this as soon as possible. Thank you so much for this
Do you do pill are what
Thank you for sharing this!! Really helpful. My dog was giardia positive last month. He got better after treatment and the vet told me no more giardia was found. However, he just had diarrhea today, which was exactly as same as before when he has giardia. I am gonna take him to the vet on Monday. I will ask the vet about the Azithromycin. Thanks again!!
Thank you for watching! I really hope azithromycin will help your pup! :)
Hi rebecca! Was your pup OK after or had he got reinfected somehow?
@@JuliaCaban maam how many grams should i give him
How long did the Giardia go away after trying all the news things for your dog?
My fenchie is 6 months old and he weights 6kg, what dose I should give him?
How is your dog doing now? Has he or she been negative so she’s done that treatment
So how much would a 8 week pitbull puppy need to take ?
My new kitten has (hopefully had) giardia. She gets retested in a few days, but it has been hell, trying to isolate her, disinfecting everything, trying to care for her and not spread anything around. I am lucky, though, as she is not eating her pooh, and is very well house-trained. Her poop is still a little loose, but the stinky farts are almost gone and her behavior is much improved. When I first got her, I thought she was docile--she was just sick. Now she's zipping around her little room and trying to use my leg as a tree (I need to get a cat tree for her, for the sake of my calves alone).
Rien Jen how’s your kitten doing? Mine has been sick for the past 2 months 🙁
Sorry.. what dosage did u give your dog? Thanks in advance ☺ great informative video. I'm going through this right now and it's really stressful 😪
I want to know this too ans how much does hee dog weigh and how many times a day.. she doesn't answer...
Fenbendazole helps big time I use safeguard for goats and it kills it pretty fast metronidazole hasn’t ever worked for me have too disinfect a lot and always clean puppy area and bathe him 1 - 2 times a week while getting better
Ugh, going through this now. My dog FINALLY has been diagnosed with giardia, but so many months have passed! He has lost so much weight, and now I am so worried that me or my husband (or our second dog) may have contracted it. Had I known he had this, I would have been washing him down after going to the bathroom in our muddy back yard. It has been a wet winter and we have so much standing water with rabbits that come and go through our yard....that is the only way I can think he contracted it. So frustrating.....
I’m so sorry to hear that! What treatment plan did your vet recommend?
In humans giardia is really nothing. We can beat it with no I intervention
I've been dealing with this for a few weeks now. My puppy had Giardia from adoption day and the medication is not working. His stool is solid now and sometimes diarrhea like. I am going to talk to my vet about this because I can't stand to know that he isn't feeling well.
Hi, thank you so much for this video i have a frenchie and she’s unfortunately going through the same thing I’ve been to the vet about 5-6 times and I am seeing no results I asked my vet for azithromycin but they did not want to go that route and gave me other medication which is still not working, I’m planning to get azithromycin over the counter for my dog and wanted to ask on more details on how you provided it to your puppy, what is the correct ratio for dogs ?
I'm sorry to hear your pup is going through a tough time. My vet prescribed Azithromycin for my puppy, and I'm not sure if it's available over the counter. The dosage and administration can vary based on your dog's weight and health condition, so it's crucial to consult with your vet before administering any medication. They can provide the correct dosage and guide you on the best course of action for your furry friend's health. I hope your pup feels better soon! 🐶💙
Thank you. My pup has it, the azthromycin, how were you able to get it, over the counter medication from a pharmacy?... What are the doses to give.? My dog has been to the vet 6 times but they not once told us to contain or clean the area with disinfectant. We had to find out on the net. Really upsetting that they failed to tell us this. She is now just pooping blood. Really worried.
I got it at my local vet clinic. I know that they gave me the same medication they give to humans so I paid a lot less than if it would be a special version for pets :) It was like $20 or less for the whole treatment. I would contact your vet and ask for it.
Glad I watched this video. I have a Frenchie that is 6 months old. She has had giardia since I brought her home at 12 weeks. Very frustrating. We are on our third treatment. Will see how it goes and if it is not gone I will ask for azythromycin. Going to buy ammonia today. I have been using bleach but did not know it doesn’t kill giardia. This has been a very difficult issue to eradicate. And I hope I haven’t caught it, been feeling pretty bad the last couple of days.
I'm so sorry to hear that 😔 Dealing with giardia is so difficult and I feel for you! I really hope azythromycin will help your pup as well 🙏 So far giardia came back only once and azythromycin helped us again - since then (it's been a few years) no issues! So, so grateful ❤️ Some vets are difficult about using azythromycin for giardia, but there are studies out there and you can point them to it.
What was the dosage of Azithromycin? Thank you. Very informative & helpful video.
Unfortunately, I don’t remember - but I know that the vet gave him the dosage for his weight - he was still a puppy at this time, so she gave him less than for an adult dog. I will try to find some old documents to find if I wrote down the dosage
@@JuliaCaban Thank you.
@@JuliaCaban hi! I would like to know, for how many days did you give him the azythromycin? Thank you
My 10 week frenchie was just diagnosed with this. He doesn’t have diarrhea or has loose stool but my puppy does poop like 8 times. We did catch him eating his poop the other day.
You fix it ??
Same here
I have a cute puppy that’s supposed to be adopted by me. She is seven months old. She has Giardia and they are giving her something. I don’t know. I don’t have her in my possession yet. I guess they can’t give out a sick dog but she’s so tiny. She only weighs 7 pounds and I would like to know exactly what you fed her. If you can she is a Bichon Frise. She is a Jul arable. I hope to get her very soon.
I am going through that with my German Shepherd puppy she keeps testing positive every time it is getting extremely expensive although my situation is a bit different she has stopped eating her Pooh and still is testing positive? They have stop treatment for now because they didn’t want to give her any more antibiotics since she is only 13 weeks. We are going back in another month I will suggest this. It is very frustrating and very frustrating I have used bleach to clean up the pool in the yard after picking it up I have tried to clean everything she might lay on. I just want her to be healthy. The doctor thinks that she may be a carrier of this
Thank you for this video. We are on our second round. I was disinfecting everything with bleach. If I have to do another round I will take your advice and ask for azithromycin and use ammonia instead.
Thanku I have several I'm so frustrated washing cleaning the vet said use bleach but a old breeder told me ammonia I gonna use that again should I use in laundry too or bleach how can I find someone to give me that medicine my vet gives me pancur and metronidazole which is Flagler so frustrated could use help I just stop treatment and do worried will get ahain
We’re going through this right now with our 9-10 week old puppy. We got her about 3 weeks ago and she has been pooping diarrhea 10-20 times a day ever since. At first we thought it was just nerves then after a week or so we called the vet and they wanted to test for parvo but that was negative, they did lots of other tests and said she had giardia. We have a 1 year old and they told us to keep her away from our son until she is better because he can catch it so unfortunately we’ve had to keep her in her cage, away from us most of the day for the last week, which i hate doing but I’d rather her be in her cage than my son get sick. We’re having the same issue of her eating her own poop when she’s in the cage and reinfecting herself. We went through one round of the treatment they gave us and it didn’t help her at all. She’s still eating normally but she’s starting to get extremely skinny. I’m gonna ask our vet about this medication today, i hope they’ll prescribe it because i am so so tired of dealing with this all the time :(
Omg thank you so much for this. My puppy is on his third antibiotics. I will definitely consult azythromycin with our vet tommorow.
Did the azithromycin work for you ?
@@peedipaper6983 it did acually! We are free from giardia ever since
Where did you get the medicine from and how long did it take to go away ?
@@peedipaper6983 our vet perscribed it and it took about two weeks to get completely rid of it but my puppy was feeling better after two days of taking it already
Thanks sooo much for your info
I’m going through this now 😭 I don’t know how it started but allll the neighborhood dogs have now gotten it... I think the spread could have been prevented if owners would pick up after their dogs. It’s been a very wet winter and it has spread to all these dogs. This is miserable! She’s lost a pound and her fur looks funky. Spent $200 already at the vet and they never figured it out after negative tests. I only figured it out after asking the breeder. She knew almost immediately.
I’m really sorry to hear that :( I went through several different treatments before finding out the right one. Fingers crossed your pup will get better soon!
Did you get it taking care of. I’m going there this now and could use some good info on how you treated you dog
Cysts like growths ?
Thanks for the information we used one pill in the food and my dogs were cured first time . We used Zoafin.
Hello Brian, what vet did u visit?
Where did you get it
My breeder said my 9 week old puppy might have gardia
What should i do
Hi I hope you see this and respond. My frenchie has had giardia for 5 months and I’m feeling so defeated. I bathe him, wash his bedding, clean his toys, etc multiple times a week and the treatment still isn’t working. Can you please share the dose of azithromycin you gave him? As well as how you cleaned with ammonia and what fresh cooked food you gave him? Please and thank you so much!
The vet gave him dose based on his weight. I don’t remember what it was. But it’s gonna be different based on each dog so you will need to talk to your vet about it
Hi thank you for sharing your experience I am sorry you had to go through this…so my puppy is 17 weeks..and she was tested positive for giardia at 14 weeks she got treated for it but now she is positive again after I sent the stool sample after her 1st treatment ended..I am so annoyed I just want her to be ok
Hi... Maybe I have same problem on my Frenchie is 7 weeks old.... This parasite call giardia do you know remember if is looks like fideos o noodles on the pup.. Thanks
Is it the medicine? Or the treatment protocol? Generally panacur is given 1ml per 5lb of body weight for five days. However, a study was done where infected dogs in a kennel were given Panacur for 5 days, then their areas were disinfected (bleach/water) and the dogs were bathed, THEN the dogs were treated for an additional five days and washed at the end of the ten day treatment, this resulted in 99% of the dogs testing negative. Panacur is fenbendazole 10%... There is a medicine called Safeguard (which is labeled for goats) BUT the SAME EXACT medicine (Fenbendazole 10%) which is available over the counter for about $35. The dose is the same as Panacur. Knowledge is power... and healthy pets and people is the goal! Source Study: "Development and evaluation of a protocol for control of Giardia duodenalis in a colony of group-housed dogs at a veterinary medical college"
Lot more helpful... thanks..
Me and my wife has a French bulldog as well.
Month and a half and we found out he has guardian when we bought him... if panacur doesn’t work I will go down that route!
Thank you for watching it. I’m
So sorry to hear that! I really
Hope you will be able to cute your pup soon❤️
Did you try this and did it work
@@peedipaper6983 yes it did ....! a lot of cleaning...!
Bleach and sanitation... its a lot of work but it fixes the problem.
@@maxthefrenchie4685 thanks I’m going to try it now. Where did you get the medicine from
@@peedipaper6983 the vet... I called and asked them..
It’s day 6 of my cat’s treatment with Azithromycin and he still had diarrhea with blood in it! I’m losing hope 😭 please tell me how long it took to see improvement in your dog!
My Frenchie got Gardia Positive, I just started the medication today (metronidazole 100ml) She has no Diarrhea only blood on stool.
Thanks for the video. But do you know how is looks the giardia when is out from the puppy on the pup is moving or not... Is looks like fideos o pieces of noodles.
You won’t see it unless you use a microscope;)
I'm not surprised that a breeder wouldn't treat for giardia. I personally use Pyrantel at 2 and 4 weeks, liquid Safeguard at 6 and 8 weeks. Safeguard given for 5 days to treat Giardia. Baycox should be used as well. Even if you don't think your environment contains coccidia or giardia, better safe than sorry. And don't forget to vaccinate.
Why aren't you surprised?
@@JuliaCaban because so many breeders are too sorry to provide proper care, are only in it for the money, or don't bother to educate themselves. A good breeder educates themselves, does proper health testing before breeding, seeks a mentor etc.
Our breeder did not deworm and treat the giardia either absolutely horrific this could have been prevented
We stopped the panacure after the 3 round. We started giving him cooked food with a dose of ginger, cinnamon, and a probiotic. Stopped going to the bathroom in his cage, diarrhea gone, no blood, and solid stools. The cinnamon is for the Giardia cysts, the ginger for the upset stomach, and the probiotic to help with his gut health.
How much cinnamon? Thanks
@@PersonalizedOnesies literally just a pinch spinkled once a day in his food.
@@MrsTayIor thank you so much! I hope this works I’m exhausted . Poor puppy too 😢
@@PersonalizedOnesies The Holistic dr says to do this for at least 2 months. Even after improvement, do not stop. I hope your pup gets better soon 🙂
Mine had the Same thing, it took awhile but was expensive with all the medications
I’m sorry to hear that:( did you get your pup from a breeder in SoCal?
Julia Caban no I’m from Texas, me and my pops just lost our boxer of 10 years and rushed into it, got him from a puppy shop😫😫😫😫😫😫😫 we shouldn’t have but a lesson learned because he was about 1,500 less, he had that and coccida think I spelt it right, took a bit but he’s fine and running around like a mad person, thanks for responding hope your pupper is fine
@@JuliaCaban I recently got a frenchie from SoCal and he has giardia, is there any reason why you metntioned SoCal in specific?
@@JuliaCaban got my pup from a breeder in socal and am dealing with this
The litter we got our pup from got giardia at 4 weeks. A couple of pups didn’t make it… Our pup was a lot tinier than our other dogs at that age(same breed). She also comes from a bigger bloodline size wise. Do you think it affected her overall growth long term? Did it stunt her projected adult size? Or will she eventually get back on track to her normal projected growth rate? Reason I ask is we specifically picked her and the breeder for size . Any information is greatly appreciated . God bless
I don’t think giardia effected his adult size - he’s as big as his dad (30 pounds). His parents were pretty tall and heavy and he’s pretty much the same size as them now. I was worried he was getting too tall at one point - was thinking it was caused by multiple treatments of antibiotics for giardia. But now i feel like he’s pretty healthy overall. Wishing you all the best❤️
This is our second round of medication. He sleeps in the crate and he does not go pee and poop at night.
During the day when I know he has eaten could poop any minute, he is in his playpen and I am watching him all the time. But if I don't look one minute he could lick his poop. I am giving him pumpkin and sweet potato with his dry food.
Thank you so much I been dealing with this with my 9 month old frenchie. I got some from Revival animal health. 250ml 50 pills for 30.00 helped out alot seen changes in 3 days like wow. I doing this for 6 days and gonna do a gram stain then. Fingers croosed
Andrew Goodwin Can you please tell me what size dose you’d give your dog of the 250ml pills (I’m assuming with the food two to three times per day)? How often each day and for how long did you give the medication (how many days or weeks)? Thanks!!
I did two pills on the first day. One in the morning and at night. And half a pill morning and night. For six days then five days no pills and then back to the same thing. Only cuz I guess I don't get rid of it the first time
My mini Aussie is going on his 4th treatment of giardia. So I will definitely be trying this and hope it works. 😭
Same here... it’s not cheap either
Did this work ??
Did it work?
It did not. 😩
By the 5th treatment he was considered an adult dog based on his weight so the vet switched him to adult dog meds and it worked finally. 😩😭
This very bad my kids kept vomiting because my pet kept infecting him with giardia really be careful.. I had to give him away after i give up :(
Hello, did you have to wash your couch, carpets, etc?
Yes! Fortunately didnt have any carpets at the time so just the couch covers :)
Do you know the Mg of the Zpack that they gave him. They did Metronidazole and Panacur for my dog and nothing helped. I took his metronidazole because I believed I got Giardia from him, and it worked for me but not for him. I got a two Azithromycin packs ready but I just wanted to make sure
What mg did you give the pup how many a day and for how long
It depends on your pups weight!
Hello. My dog has Giardia🙁 May I know how many dosage did you gave to your dog and how many days the medication last. My dog is on its second medication using the antibiotics gave by his vet. I'm planning to try this because I don't want to see him suffer again from his diarrhea. Thanks in advance 😊
I have the same Questions .keep me updated please
I have had my puppy since December 16 and he has just been diagnosed. I cannot believe it, I spent the whole night looking it up on the internet and I am close to losing my marbles. I cannot deal with having to clean 24/24, desinfecting everything she touches. She has blankets etc that cannot be wsshed at 60 degrees, I read of people desinfecting gardens.. what the hell. Am I seriously not going to ever be able to walk her in parks and let her run free, not able to meet up with friends and their dogs for she can potentionally make them very sick?..
keep in mind that puppies have poor immune system so as soon as you cure it, the chances he will catch it again are lower - getting rid of giardia is the hardest. So Please be optimistic :)
Hahahhahha don't freak out. I just found out too that my puppy has the shitty parasite. I still let him play and take him for walks. Just bath him 2 to 3 times a week and clean his paws when you come back from walks.
Hello guys I greet you from Colombia, I am really very sad my 9-month-old Boxer has Giardia, and we did not treat him well 2 months ago that he acquired it in a small rotten water in the street, We have treated with antibiotic, bio renegerators Organew '' But nothing works now I bought Hills 'digestive care' and it makes a good poop sometimes and other times it makes it very soft .... I am desperate I see my thin dog and I do not want him to suffer this anymore !!!
Whats the milligrams of metronidazole
Vet should advise that - it depends on dog weight
Thanks Julie your scientific article proves that Zoafin works better and it was my experience too.
Zoafin works to kill giardia in dogs?
