Do I need to deworm my indoor dog?

【Expert answer】
Any Q

Every time you give a deworming pill you get rid of any adult worms that are living in the intestines. If there is a large number, you may see them pass in the stool (they look like a pile of spaghetti). Currently, we recommend monthly deworming for all dogs in the summer months.


How often should you deworm your indoor dog?

At least every three months. Depending on your pet's lifestyle, more regular worming may need to be undertaken and it is recommended this be discussed with your vet if you are concerned.

Does my dog really need a dewormer?

Worms are nasty parasites that can cause chronic gastrointestinal problems. This is why it is important to deworm your dog regularly. This contributes to your dog's health. Puppies that are not dewormed may get ill and suffer from growth retardation.

What happens if I dont deworm my dog?

The worms remain hidden away, deep in your pet's guts. Your pet could be playing, sleeping and eating just fine, but inside he may have worms feeding, growing and multiplying. You wouldn't have a clue until it was possibly too late – scary stuff, right?
