Expert Answer

Dog coccidiosis is generally treated with sulfadimidine, but use it under a vet’s guidance to avoid harm from wrong dosing. Clinical signs are bloody stool, anemia, general weakness, and dehydration, needing prompt treatment.

Puppies are more susceptible due to weak constitution and low resistance; prevent with regular deworming and clean, safe food.
