Should I take my puppy to the vet for worms?

【Expert answer】
Any Q

Once worms are suspected to be affecting your dog, seek veterinary guidance right away for an exact diagnosis and treatment regimen. De-worming medication is usually necessary, and in severe cases, your dog may need to be hospitalized for treatment and observation.


Should I be worried if my puppy has worms?

All in all, worms in dogs are generally nothing to worry about – as long as you catch them and treat them in good time, your dog will be as happy as ever! There are a number of other parasites to keep an eye out for, including mites and ticks.

What should I do if my puppy has worms?

If a dog has a bad reaction to the worms and there is diarrhoea or sickness, simple foods such as rice with chicken or white fish can help to settle the stomach, and fresh water should always be provided, but the most important thing is to use a worming treatment to get rid of the infestation.

Do you have to go to the vet to get dewormer?

The over-the-counter wormers purchased through pet supply retailers typically treat roundworms, which are found in most puppies but are usually not effective on the range of other parasites that older dogs can have. For those, you'll most likely need medication from your veterinarian.
