Syrup for Puppies
Tablet form for Adults
Deworming and Vaccinations are very important to your canine friends...From pup to adulthood, this schedule must be followed upon the advise of your veterinarian. While most dog owners rely on their veterinarian, some breeders take the matter in their own hands. The safest you can do on your own is to deworm your dog, while vaccination, well, I'd rather let the experts handle that.
For deworming puppies, we use Wormban(troy), this come in syrup form, read instructions on the bottle. Syrup form is designed for puppies and it is important to weigh the pup accurately to prevent overdosing.
For deworming Adult dogs, we use canex(pfizer) or popantel, both in tablet form. One tablet treats a 10kg dog. Round up to nearest half or whole tablet. Pls ensure accurate weight of dog prior to deworming.
(example1: A Rottweiler of 35Kg is given 3 and a half tablets of canex.)
(example2: A pekingese of 5kg is given half a tab of canex)
DEWORMING
Puppies>> Treat at 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, and 12 weeks
Dog from 12 weeks>> Every 3 months or every 6 weeks in HYDATID infested areas.
Pregnant bitches>> Treat at mating, before whelping and then every three (3) months
