Best puppy wormer?

I have always used Strongit for puppies starting at 2 weeks but it is always a hassle because i have to go to the vet to purchase. What are some other options that you all use? I would appreciate any info or opinions you all might have. Thanks.

Nemex II from tractor supply is the best I found.

Nemex 2 (pyrantel pamoate) isn't doing it for me here anymore. I've gone to Safeguard (fenbendazole).

Sure ain't no expert on this but my last litter I changed it up a little with good results.

I have always started them out on strongid T which is about the same as nemex 2. I like it because it is safe.

Last litter of pups it just didn't seem like it was doing what I have seen in the past and got some safeguard.

The strongid T you just did once and the safeguard you do once a day for three days.

I rotated every couple weeks between the two wormers and probably will keep that method up on future litters.

I think Safeguard will also get a few different worms the stringed t won't.

I think anything you use you should investigate and make up your own mind.

I've had great results with Nemex II... You wont get rid of the worms until you get them off their Mom.

It's good to alternate wormers. Use Strongid-T (Pyrantel) one time and follow up with Safeguard/Panacur (Fenbendazole) on the next deworming. Deworm pups every 2 weeks until they are 16 weeks old, then get them on a monthly deworming program. Interceptor Plus is my favorite monthly dewormer and it can be used in 6 week old pups.

It's really important to deworm your bitches aggressively, especially prior to breeding. Monthly deworming with Interceptor Plus or Heartgard Plus has proven to significantly reduce parasites in the pups.

i use nemex until 8 weeks old then i switch to safeguard until they are 6 months old then i put them on equimax from then on and i will rotate on the third month ..

Posted by Driftwoodblue on 02-05-2016 01:30 PM:

Pyran 50

get on your computer and type in Pyran 50
it will bring up several sources for the same thing as Strongid T you can get enough to last a while and save $$

I really appreciate everyone's help!! Thanks.

Safeguard for Goats. (liquid) Best I've ever used. Kills everything but tape and heart worms. Read up on it a lot has been written. Awhile back a post on another site gave a dosage chart for pups according to weight. If you have trouble finding it let me know ill try and post a copy we have on hand.
Give it to the Dam also every two weeks along with the pups. Keeps them clean and healthy.

What is the correct cc/ml per pound you give them using the safeguard?

Always use nemix 11 starting at 2 weeks best I have seen so far. Probally some more good wormer out there also it is important like Dennis said keep the mother worm free.

Posted by Steve Shipman on 02-16-2016 09:01 AM:

Weight Amount safeguard

8oz or less = 1/10cc
9oz to 1lb = 2/10cc
1lb 1oz to 1lb 8oz = 3/10cc
1lb 9oz to 2lb = 4/10cc
2lb 1oz to 2lb 8oz. = 5/10cc
2lb 8oz to 3lb. = 6/10cc
3lb to 3lb 8oz = 7/10cc

Give 3 days in a row @ 6 weeks old

Posted by on 02-16-2016 01:10 PM:

If i round those numbers off for larger pups it would be 1 cc per 5 pounds.

that sounds like a high does to give three days in a row to a 5 lb pup 6 week old pup ..
i have never broke down safeguard because i never use it much at all and if the goat wormer and the horse wormer dose rates are anywhere close it sounds high ..

I Talked to a vet about this she said that would be fine 1cc/ml per #, that is on grown hounds I never ask about pups.

The dosage is what we give our beagle pups. Awhile back a vet posted the dosage on a board. Just copied the chart I printed from the post. It's works fine for us.

Posted by Steve Shipman on 02-17-2016 10:12 PM:

Someone needs to start a post regarding home remedies that just about all houndsmen can contribute too. Maybe start a sticky at the top of this forums. Beagle board had one a few years back.
