I get Strongent form my vet. I don't buy the cheap crap from Walmart. It takes care of round and hook worms. I have to get a different wormer for Tape worms but I never have had to I haven't had a problem with Tape worms. We don't have issues with whip worms around here so I don't know what to use for them. Make sure and keep your dogs Flea free because they can get Tape worms from eating fleas or flea larvae.

Worm with pyrantol pamoate that I get from the vet. This particular brand is made for humans, 1st of every month they get 1cc per 10/lb, keeps the hooks and rounds gone, cost me about $20 a quart and last several months, even with the numerous dogs I have. Dogs love it, I can worm them through the fence, when they see me with the syringe they come open their mouths and wait. Ive tasted it, it is real tasty. Also about 2 times a year I get a bottle of Valbazen from the local feed store, it is a cattle wormer, Give the dogs 3-5 cc 3days in a row to get rid of the rest of the worms they could pick up. I dont ivomec, never had a dog with heart worms, never seen a dog in my area with heart worms to be honest.
