Lindsey, I wouldn't treat Layla if her stools have been normal since Saturday. My Rowdy had Giardia when we were camped in the mountains and he had diarrhea for days and days. We were in an area without a vet, so we had to break camp and take him to a vet. They didn't have any medicine in a small enough dose for him (we were in rural New Mexico - guess they don't have many small dogs there) so we had to go to Santa Fe to a pharmacy that does compounding to have them make his medicine. By that time he had had diarrhea for about 8 days. I gave him the medicine and he didn't poop for 6 days. I just knew I was going to have to give him an enema!!! LOL!

Anyway, I wouldn't treat Layla if her poop is normal now.
