Wormer
hi all took diesel for his first round of vaccinations/deflea/worm today and the vet has told me that a puppy has to be wormed every fortnight untill 12 weeks then every month untill 6 months old.
My question is, is it worth having the vet do it or are the shop bought wormers good enough to do the job. If so what is the best brand. Diesel is just 8 weeks old.

Re: Wormer
Drontal makes Taz sick
So we use the vet prescribed wormer 'Milbemax' which is £6 a time - I guess it could be bought cheaper in bulk from the pet med sites but I won't bulk buy till she is fully grown (as wormer and flea stuff goes on weight of dog )

Re: Wormer
not sure what the vet gave him i have it in a recipt out down stairs (kids are in bed) cant get to it now. at the end of the day £6 isnt going to break the bank and his welfare means more.
ahhh i love him.
dont tell my other half!!!
thanks. xxx
