Do I Need To Worm My Puppy?

First...wait till your puppy is 6 weeks old. After the first initial dose you have to wait 10 days for the second dose and then you can give it to him every 30 days for preventive measures. I raise American Bulldogs and Pitbulls and this is how our vet has told us is the most efficient way to do the worming. Hope this helps!

Was the supposed roundworm moving?   If yes, then he has the top sign that he has worms.
  Seesee

Cattle get shots for worms.... Puppy shots are vaccinations, needed to prevent your dog from contracting horrible and deadly things like Parvo, Distemper and of course Rabies, etc. Standard protocol is first puppy shot at weaning (usually around 6 weeks). This one vaccination does not fully immunize your pup. Pup will need 2 more boosters usually at 3 wk intervals. Then once a year. Puppy wormer is given orally. (pill, powder added to food or paste)

Unless your veterinarian has said that the puppy has worms, I wouldn't stress over it right away. It stands to reason that if most puppies are born with them, and most puppies live, then there shouldn't be any immediate concern about them.

If you are terribly concerned you could call the SPCA and ask them if you should have him checked out, or your veterinarian. If he does have them, they might even want you to wait until the puppy is older, that's for them to say. Hope this helps.

Yes. All puppies need worming, otherwise they end up with a bloated stomach. You cannot see the worms until you worm them, that's the point. You can buy worming tablets from the supermarket, pedigree do them, if you don't want a vets bill. But please make sure they are suitable for a pup so young.
PS: Your puppy should not have been separated from it's mother until 8 weeks.

Being that there are several signs of worms the best thing you should do is carry he or she to a vet, most likely because you are asking this question your puppy most likely has worms. Once the vet gives your dog a check up, you can take over. All you have to do is worm your pup once a month. The first is a good day to set so it becomes routine.

You should, as a breeder, start to worm your pups from 2 weeks old with a vet prescribed medicine NOT off-the-shelf wormers. Typically they should then be wormed monthly until they are 6 months old then it can be cut down to every 2-3 months until you are only having to worm twice a year as an adult dog.

Please call the Vet's office right away. They will tell you the correct information.

I guess when it moves a lot

Has he had his second lot of injections yet (usually about 2 weeks after the 1st)? Ask your vet then about worming. He will probably do it there and then for you. It doesn't cost much.

Tail chasing, and you can see them in the stool. Take a sample to the vet for testing. It Needs medication.

ALL puppies are born with worms. ALL OF THEM! I know a vet. All you have to do is get some worm treatment and its fine

Their nose wont be wet

they will want to be left alone

and they will need to use the restroom a lot

Well ive gt a puppy itS A Rottweiler 3 months old do I need to give him his worming tablet yet

I have two eight week old chihuahuas and I think they have worms....when can I give them worm medicine???

Thank you for the answer. I 'm just so worried about my lil ms. Stefani. She's a chihua hua mix and she's only 10 and a half weeks old. I thought I saw something in her stool. So I'll just deworm her again. Thank you!!

My 10 week puppy has live worms in her stools- they look like bean shoots.
She goes to the toilet a lot & sits down a lot on the cold wooden floor- I have seen her dragging her bottom on the floor twice.
She bites herself--  these are all signs of worms.
When we first bought her home at 8 weeks old- we took her to the vet for her first jab 2 days after we got her & the vet put a wormer on the back of her neck which treated for worms, fleas & other things the vet told us she will need to be re-wormed again every two weeks which was fine- then a week later I started noticing worms in her stool. -
I took her back to the vet, as I didnt think this should of happened?
The vet looked puzzled & said she will need to be put on a stronger wormer & we will need to give it to her once a week- she is currently on this programme for few weeks now & I'm hoping this will work because it is horrible seeing her like this. - she could pass it on to my other dog aswell so needs to be treated quickly

hope this helps
