Dewormer

Our puppies and mother receive four doses of dewormer before leaving for their new family. We give the doses at 3, 5, 6, and 7 weeks of age.

We use the dewormer Pyrantel Pamoate from our veterinarian. It's a liquid that is mixed with Puppy Milk Replacer at our veterinarian. It's administered with a syringe, without the needle, on the tongue of the puppy. They like the taste of the puppy milk replacer and it's never a problem getting them to take the dose. It's a small dosage of around half a milliliter. For reference, one teaspoon is approximately 5 milliliters.  

 

Our medicine does not come from a pet store or an animal co-op.

The puppy comes with health records that indicate the four doses of dewormer. They also receive two full veterinarian exams, age appropriate shots, and tested for worms before leaving for a new home. The first exam is at 3-weeks old and the second at 8-weeks old. The full veterinarian exam includes checking their heart, lungs, eyes, ears, nose, throat, joints, palette, abdomen, etc.
