We purchased a puppy named Ransom from a breeder in PA and live in UT. Two days after getting him, he was diagnosed with coccidia and giardia. He was treated with a yellow medicine for 10 days and Panacur for 5 days, but the coccidia cleared up while the giardia persisted. He was retested and is now on another 7 days of Panacur, but his stools are still loose. What additional steps can be taken to treat the giardia and improve his stool consistency?

My 9-year-old Yorkie Poo, Zoyee, has pooped 5 times this morning and is still straining to poop. She has been eating more frequently and sometimes eats dirt. Her stomach feels tight, and her last two poops were loose with some fluid. What should I do for her today, and is an X-ray the only way to diagnose her condition?

My dog, Athena, a 2-year-old German Shepherd weighing 95 lbs, has been taking 1 1/2 phenobarbital pills (16.2 mg each) daily for seizures since February. She has not had a seizure in 3 weeks but recently had 2 seizures in one day and 2 more the next day. Should I give her an extra dose of phenobarbital, and what other steps should I consider to manage her seizures?
