Been looking into worming fudge this evening as she's now 9months old and hasn't had it done since 2nd injections. I've read that deworming is recommended every 3-6months, is this ccorrect? Also do most people use over the counter products for this or is it a visit to mr vet? If over the counter does anybody have any recommendations? Thanks

Pups should be wormed every month until they're 6 months old, and then every 3 months for life.

I go to the vet for Dempsey's as they do an all-in tablet that includes round/tape/lung worm. For his weight (31 kilos) he has to have 2 chewable tablets & they cost around £5 for the pair.

Drontal is good, but I have to wrap it ham and give it to her as if I put it in her food she manages to eat round the tablets!

Just looking into that and apparently yes you can get it in powder form but I can't find it here in England just America!
