Hello there, I have a 5 and a half month old german shepherd puppy. She has been having a soft stool and occasional diarrhea for a while now, so I took her to our vet, we collected some stool samples and she tested positive for giardia. Today we started her on fenbendazole (Panacur) and I’m also giving her probiotics as recommended by our vet. Yesterday she started having extreme diarrhea, it’s very liquid and she poops more often then usual. I’m hoping that Panacur and probiotics will fix that, and I am wondering how soon can I expect to see improvement? And also, is there anything else I could give her to prevent dehydration and electrolyte imbalance due to diarrhea? Other than giardia, she’s perfectly healthy, ideal weight, healthy teeth, skin and coat.
