    He didn't mention anything about that. What would be the treatment if he has the protozoa?

    I wish I could have gotten him into another vet that may have more knowledge/experience (vet school). But they couldn't see him until Tuesday and I work weekdays and for a vet visit like this it would need to be a drop off/pick up or take some time off -- with my work schedule and the vet school's hours it would need to be some planned time off. I had/have Thursday and Friday off this week (planned days off).

    This vet had been recommended by a knowledgeable local pet store. So I took the only appointment this particular vet had.

    Anyway, hopefully the panacur will work. I have to try it and give it some time to work before I spend more money on another vet visit.

    Another edit: Just called the vet clinic and had the receptionist ask the vet. He said he didn't see any pathogenic protozoa.

    Usually a Panacur/Flagyl suspension will rid the frog of both parasitic worms and Protozoa.

    I gave it it's first dose of Panacur earlier today. Tonight, he/she eagerly took a small worm. I'll see how that goes before I offer more tomorrow or the next evening.
