puppy not gaining weight???

I got two pups that are about 2 months old. The female is as healthy as a horse. The male is not gaining any weight and is not keeping up with his sister as far as growing and has some thin spots of hair on him. When I first got him I was having problems with him having seizures. Someone told me hookworms would do it so I wormed the crap out of him and he stopped but he still isnt gaining any weight and looks bad. Im keeping them wormed out good and his gums are as pink as they can be. Is there somthing else I can try. Im just out of ideas.

Valbazen. I gave it 4 days in a row then waited two weeks and did it again.

We had a litter of walker pups that we fostered and two of the pups started having this problem @ 2 mo. They ended up having horrible heart murmmurs and had to be euthanized. I would take to a vet and checked out. Hopefully it's not the same thing. Good Luck

I dont feel like its worms. His sister is healthy and every other dog I give the valbazen to is absolutely worm free and does fine. Maybe im wrong though.

I'd just take him to the vet and have some tests run, maybe cheaper and easier for you in the long run.
