Most of the time, regardless of what you see in their stool, recently dewormed dogs behave like normal. Puppies and other dogs may require repeat deworming treatments a few weeks after their initial treatment.
Can I deworm my puppy after a week?
Before you pick them up from your breeder or rescue center, your puppy should be wormed by them every week from two/three weeks until they are twelve weeks old.
Can I worm my dog twice in one week?
Yes she sure can. It can take up to 1 week to rid the first round of worms in her system. Then as the worms in her system go through their 2 week life cycle (from baby worms to adult worms that you see in the poop) they should be treated again as a re-emergence of worms is seen.
How soon can I deworm my dog again?
The reason is that oral anti-parasitics remain inside your dog's body only for a few hours, so it is necessary to administer a second dose at least every two weeks to better eliminate internal parasites.
Can you deworm a puppy more than once?
Once your puppy reaches 12 weeks, you can continue to treat your puppy every three months for life with an effective all wormer. Mothers may also pass worms on to their puppies, so it is important they are treated during mating, and before the birth of their puppies.
