Hi ((Peggy)). First of all BLESS YOUR HEART for adopting a pound puppy!

I haven't had any animals with whipworm so I don't have firsthand knowledge of that. The last dog I had, when my daughter was little and while she was growing up, was from a pound. She had horrible...oh now I forget! lol She had terrible diarrhea that they called something pound something. It was common for dogs to catch this (whatever it was) resulting in diarrhea.

Whipworms sound just awful from what I've just been reading on the internet. They are long-lasting little stinkers as well and it sounds like your angel will need to have this treatment periodically to get rid of them.

I hope these links help a little, but yes, I agree with the others...call your vet right away tomorrow and ask them about this. I'm wondering if it may be a reaction to the medicine working and starting to kill those buggers in her intestines. Apparently they reside in the large intestine and their cycles are very long.

Let us know, please, how this goes.
