It is common for puppies to have roundworms. They can be inherited and can also be transferred through the Mother’s milk.
Pups should be wormed from two weeks old and treatment continued every two weeks until fourteen weeks then move to three monthly cycles. Use a pour on such as Drontal or The Advocate.
Tapeworms can become a problem when dogs eat fleas. Because of this it is important to have a flea treatment program for puppies. Use Frontline, The Advocate or Revolution on a monthly basis.
It is a good idea to keep records of all your treatments for the individual pups.
