Coccidia in dogs
People often first encounter coccidia when they acquire a
young puppy who is infected. The infectious organisms are
canine-specific and are not contagious to humans.
The usual treatment is a sulfa based medication. The one thing I found
out recently is be careful to not over dose your pups as you can
clean their intestines of all bacterias and make them sicker than
they were or even kill a pup.
Killing all the bacterias in the intestines can shut down their systems
and act like the symptoms of parvo but, without a high fever, or the
rancid dead smelling stools it's not parvo, just a bad case of coccidia.
Or worst yet you cleaned the intestines out of all good and bad
bacterias so just be careful of how much sulfa you use on pups.
