Smudge managed to pick up this parasitic infection , probably from drinking infected water, in mid Sept, but it was only diagnosed (through analysis of a sample) in early Oct.
She's had 3 lots of antibiotics and probiotics (2 * 5 day courses, and 1 course of a fortnight), but each time the problem is back after 2 days. The vet has now put her on a 5 day course of panacur, but tbh I'm not convinced that this is going to be the answer, as by now (day 2) on antibiotics she had some 'respite'. But I also worry about her having too many antibiotics err.gif
We've also been giving her 'live' yoghurt with every meal.
So, I'm wondering if there is anything else we could give her (eg herbal or homeopathic) that would help her immune system defeat this parasitic invasion. Can you give dogs echinacea for example?
I'd be really grateful if anyone knows of anything we could try.....
