It sounds like you have a vet that knows what they're doing, and might have a good amount of equipment to utilize. An endoscopic examination and perhaps an intestinal biopsy might not be out of the question, and likely would be quite beneficial.

Kelly, you've probably had more hands-on dealings with crypto than I. I think I've used that stain a few times on dog stool. Have you come across negative samples, only because a positive animal did not shed during that void? I wouldn't expect it on an animal that is exhibiting symptoms, but asymptomatics might only shed intermittently, correct?

Ian
