Panacur granules for 5 days not the typical 3 plus metronidazole for 2 weeks (apparently this stuff tastes HORRIFIC. I had to throw her chicken only diet out the window and hide it in a huge chunk of ham before she ate it. My husband has had it and says even if you swallow fast it’s the grossest thing he’s ever tasted).
The vet said we could do the panacur through saturday and if she wasnt better add the antibiotic but bc she was just on the last antibiotic she wants her cleared out completely. Bumped the goats milk up to 1 cup a day and approved my probiotic on top of that. Said keep the probiotic through the heartworm treatment which is now on hold bc of this.
She was lethargic before- I assumed she felt crappy from the antibiotic and the vet wasn’t concerned. Now she’s fully awful. She fell asleep during the vet appt and in the car on the way home. She ate almost a whole chicken (YAY) and is asleep again. She normally stirs when I walk by but right now shes fully out.
Shes a hard one for sure but I cant imagine her being anywhere else but with us. She’ll get better. Right now it’s hard explaining to the kids how awful she feels. They’re not old enough to really get it. Hopefully by monday shes turned around and I can go back to the food discussion. :-/
