Once it's in your soil, it's always there.  It helps to walk mama dog in area where no other dogs hang out, so she doesn't carry it into the whelping area on her feet.

I've used this for preventative the past year and haven't had any issues.  It works similar to Marquis.  1 Dose at 3 weeks, 5 weeks, and 7 weeks.  I use .2ml per lb, though some on here say .1ml per lb.  Puppies have never had an issue with it...you'll see light colored stool when it passes through them, but that's it.

Yep, sounds like it is as much of a pain for puppies/dogs as it is for reptiles.  The fun was that I had to give my reptiles shots for their meds.  Lol. 

Good luck.

if sulfa drugs work in the puppy, can agricultural sulfur work in the ground?

Coccidia Control In Kennels

Recommendations for Eliminating Coccidia from Kennels

• Treat all dogs with sulfadimethoxine or tribrissen for 10 days
• Disinfect kennel areas, etc. with quaternary ammonium disinfectants which are effective in inactivating coccidian oocysts
• Bathe all dogs with shampoo to remove all fecal matter, rinse with water
• Rinse dogs with quaternary ammonium disinfectants, then water
• Allow kennels to dry thoroughly for several days
• Retreat with sulfadimethoxine or tribrissen for 7 days
• Treat any new dogs with sulfadimethoxine or tribrissen for 10 days even if they test negative for coccidia because it is so hard to detect in fecal tests. Note: The sulfa drugs do not kill the organisms, but rather inhibit their reproduction capabilities, elimination of the coccidian from the intestine is not rapid. By stopping the ability of the protozoa to reproduce, time is allowed for the puppy’s own immunity to develop and remove the organisms.

Disinfecting of Kennels

Thorough cleaning of all kennel areas where infected dogs have access is essential. Once organic debris has been removed, thorough disinfection will help to further reduce the level of environmental contamination and reduce the risk of dogs becoming re-infected after the completion of treatment.

Disinfectants containing quaternary ammonium compounds have been found to kill Coccidia oocysts at the manufacturers’ recommended dilutions (1:704 was found to be effective at both high and low temperatures).

Recommendations to disinfect kennels twice per month by washing everything down with a mixture of 8 ozs. of bleach per gallon of water. Make sure you let it set at least 20 minutes, rinse thoroughly, and then let it get completely dry before letting the dogs use the kennels again.

Important Note: The efficacy of killing is increased by prolonged contact time; therefore, disinfectant solution should be left on for 20-30 minutes before being rinsed off kennel or run surfaces. Since disinfection of grass runs is impossible, such area should be regarded as contaminated for at least a month after infected dogs last had access.

I would NOT give Tribrissen to a tiny puppy!!!  I won't use it anymore unless the pup is over 12 weeks, personally. I don't care what the safety regs. say, there are serious side effects when they're that small. I have personal experience as well as other people's whom I've spoken to about this. 

Ok,   The new owners take the pup to their vet & they come back with it.  No puppies do not go out where there is alot  of anything that will hurt them.  I want to prevent it if I can.  I clean with soapy bleach water & scrub the floor and their bed, even the walls.  They are born in a bedroom just for the puppies.  I will do whatever it takes to keep my puppies clean & healthy.

Myself and others have gotten pups that got very sick and even died after being given that toltrazuril, so fair warning!  My vet told me its not for dogs at all, only for ruminents. )

Don't beat yourself up about it. I wouldn't even bother telling a breeder about it, personally. If a pup I buy has it, I treat it. It's a pain in the butt, but once it's there, good luck getting rid of it. I haven't had any of mine end up with it (that I've ever been told about, and I do talk to most people often) so I think if you know a dog's infected, and you treat it and keep it's elimination in a separate area, you CAN keep your property fairly clean. 

From now on, ever since I imported the one dog, I will put Sulmet in all my drinking water when the pups start drinking and that way, they won't end up with it a week after their new owners get them home and panic that they have parvo. 

CMills,  I think you mean ruminant, and pigs and horses are not ruminants. A horse is a hind-gut fermentor, monogastric, and a pig is also monogastric.

Jenni- LOL thats what I get for trying to work and mess around on the database at the same time! and yep my spelling sure could use a lil help.

One of my puppies I bought had this and I keep my dogs on grass. I treated the yard with a 30% clorox water solution very successfully.Treat the area puppy potties after scooping and keep dog our of that area for 24 hrs. I also treated the whole kennel area with this to cut down on other issues as well.
