Do you have it in your area?
What is your treatment/prevention protocol?
If you breed, do you treat all puppies before you send them home or do fecal tests before treating?

Yes its in our area and yes I do preventative treatings to puppies before they go to their new homes.
I rarely bother with fecals.
I use panacur and safeguard typically.

Lee, if you don't mind sharing, what dosage, and frequency/age do you treat? I've not had any pups here that seemed symptomatic, but a couple pups from my last litter ended up with it soon after they went to their new homes, so I want to do something before the next litter goes home just to be sure that if they get it, it's not because they left here with it.

I start at 2 weeks with panacur. 1 cc per 4.4 lbs for 3 days.
I do it every two weeks (2/4/6) until they go home and if I have them at 8 weeks, I do them again.
I also treat for coccidia. I use Toltrazuril and treat proactively at 3/5/7 weeks. That dosage is .2 cc per lb. One time dose unless they have symptoms.
