I was interested in seeing what type of wormer you guys use for your dogs and how often you give it to them. Just looking to find something that works good and not waste money on stuff that is no good. Thanks for any input.

Drontal Plus. Best I have ever used for adult dogs. Gets ALL intestinal worms. 1 pill - one time. Dont have to worry about giving it 3 days in a row like some. I give it 3-4 times a year. Kinda expensive from your vet. You can order the generic equivalent (PPO Wormer) from: http://www.eisenhutdogsupplies.com/medicine.htm

if you've got only one or two dogs drontal is fine. it's a good wormer for all worms. however, if you have several dogs and not a lot of money or if you are frugal, you equimax paste. you use one ml for a 50lb dog. it will also take care of heartworm preventitive for that month, only, but should be used to treat a heartworm infestation.

. Uncle Billy Ray, this is the chart breakdown on using equimax horse wormer on dawgs. The month I worm them with this, I leave off the ivomec heartworm treatment that month. This gets all worms to include tape worms. It cost about $9.00 a tube. Tim Cope gave me my lessons on this stuff and it works. A syringe will fit right in the business end of this tube so it's easy to draw out and measure.

Equimax horse wormer 1.87% Ivermectin 14.03% Praziquantel


1cc = 43lbs. to 51lbs.
9/10cc = 38lbs. to 46lbs.
8/10cc = 34lbs. to 41lbs.
7/10cc = 30lbs. to 36lbs.
6/10cc = 26lbs. to 31lbs.
5/10cc = 21lbs. to 26lbs.
4/10cc = 17lbs. to 21lbs.
3/10cc = 13lbs. to 15lbs.
2/10cc = 9lbs. to 10lbs.
1/10cc = 4lbs. to 5lbs.

i got this from a pinned entry on squirrel dog central that's been used and accredited by all the folks everthere.
