What happens after giving deworming a puppy?

After worming your pet, your dog may pass out dead worms and this is completely normal and nothing to worry about. Sometimes, they may show some slight movement, such as a flicking motion, but the worms will go on to die.

How long does it take for dewormer to work in puppies?

Most medications don't take long to start working. It can take as little as two hours for the worms to start dying off. However, in most cases, the process starts about 12 hours after administering the dewormer. You may continue to see worms in your pup's poop for about a week.

Is it normal for puppies not to eat after deworming?

Right after deworming your dog may have little to no appetite. This is a normal side effect of the medication and shouldn't be worrisome. However, you should still try to make sure your pup is eating or attempting to eat.
