Puppies should be wormed at 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 weeks and then every month. This will help them grow and be healthier. and yes you can worm the mother, it will not hurt anybody. These are big dogs so by worming them they will look healthier and be healthier and that is what people buying them are going to look at.

The pups and Mother should be wormed at 14 days since litter was born,but would suggest using the wormer named PANACUR,because it is a very safe wormer.Only give pups about 3 of the tiny marks on a 3 cc syringe.This wormer must be repeated for 3 days in a row.

You worm puppies and mother at 2,4,6,and 8 weeks.
You don't wait until weaning!!!! They will have a heck of a roundworm load by then!!! They get them through the milk from the mother. Use a pyrantel pamoate liquid wormer. Breeders have been worming starting at 2 weeks FOREVER. Produces healthier puppies!!!

what you should of done and bare in mind that is if you breed again to go to the vets about ten days before pups are born and the vet will give you worming that is to give to the mother and it sorts out the worms for both ***** and pups but has to be given to the ***** a week to ten days before pups are due but dont worm now to late wait until pups are around 3 to 4 weeks old but you need to get proper advice from your vet

Depends on what you use for wormer. Check with the vet first. Normally it is recommended. And when you start to worm the pups, worm her again too

I would get in touch with your vet i gave my dog a wormer two weeks after she had her puppies but i checked with the vet first. He advised me to use panacure which you can get from the vet. Enjoy the puppies mine are 5 weeks old today and they are a handful, A loverly cute handful. enjoy them and good luck

NO!!!!! she is feeding the puppies and will pass on any worming medication you give to her to the pups. If you want to have one rehomed then write back to me as we are looking for one of these pups for our pet. What colour are they?

not until after pups are weaned .....
if she is infected, has already shared that with the pups.....
advise anyone you give the puppies too for immediate treatment(after weaning)
she has been thru a good bit already - do all you can to help build up her strength during this time of recovery and feeding of pups
thanks for caring!
