WORMING
Your puppy has been wormed every two weeks from birth, and is due to be wormed again on the 10/11 and the 24/11. Then every month until 6 months of age, then every 3 months for the rest of your dog’s life.
A worming tablet has been provided, but you will need to WEIGH your puppy in order to give the correct dose. This tablet will be enough for at least the next two doses. 1 tablet = 10kgs (so you will need a quarter or a half) i.e 1⁄4 for 2.5kgs, 1⁄2 for 5 kgs etc
Your vet can advise you on many different types of wormers available, that includes heartworm protection.
