| How often should I worm my pet? |

Regular worming is essential both for human and animal health. Most puppies are treated with liquid or granule wormers in the first few weeks of life. To ensure that your new puppy is kept worm free we recommend monthly worming up to 4 months of age, then every 3 months, though in some situations adult dogs do require more frequent treatment. Lungworm is a new serious disease in dogs especially Staffies and Cavaliers, monthly treatment is recommended. Cats should be wormed as tiny kittens, then at 9 and 12 weeks, then every 3 months, though hunters do require more frequent treatment. |
