Can I deworm my puppy 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.
Can I deworm my puppy every week?
Once you have your puppy at home, you will most likely be given a wormer by your Veterinarian. After worming them weekly until twelve weeks, you should worm every month until they are 6 months old, and then after that every 3 -6 months.
Can I give my puppy Dewormer two days in a row?

Can you deworm a puppy too often?
We advise regular worming of puppies from birth to 6 months of age. Puppies 6 months of age and adult dogs are advised to be routinely wormed three to four times a year. It is safest to discuss which wormer to use with your vet to ensure it is safe for your dog, its life stage and that the correct dose is given.
