Pregnant Bitches and Unweaned Pups Pregnant bitches and bitches with young puppies should be wormed frequently. We recommend that bitches should be wormed before mating, after the first 45 days of pregnancy and after giving birth. They should then be wormed with their pups at 2, 5 and 8 weeks and after weaning.


How often should you worm a pregnant dog?

You should worm both the bitch and her puppies every 2 weeks from when the puppies are 2 weeks of age until they are 12 weeks of age. Thereafter, both the mum and her puppies can be wormed once every three months.

Can you give a dog dewormer while pregnant?
