i've no confidence in over the counter worm tablets. your vet can dispense meds which work effectively. if you're not doing so already, please consider heartworm testing followed by a preventive like heartguard or interceptor. these offer protectiomn against whipworms, hookworms and roundworms in addition to heartworms.
it's a simple measure which pays off greatly over the dog's life. |
He gets heartwormed and gets those worm protection tablets/ spray..im not very familiar with it as my mum does it all..but on our calendar we have market when he needs the heartworm tablet etc..we got all of this from our vet (the vet recommended it all).. hes been taking this his whole life.
