drontal plus is a good broad wormer if you can buy it from a vet without having every dog you have getting an exam for an extre 75 bucks per dog. if you think you have a problem take in a stool sample it is cheap and then you will know. i usually do drontal 1 or 2 times a year to the whole pack and if for some other reason a dog has to go to the vet i have them do a stool sample on it just for cuiriousity.

Go down to your local tractor supply type store and get the safeguard goat wormer, same active ingriedient as the dog wormer at a fraction of the cost. follow the goat wieght reccomendations for dosages. 20 bucks for a bottle and you can worm alot of dogs off of it. Give in 3 day doses and repeat about every 6 months.

S@gebrush LoneHunter back to you. The wormer you mentioned is one of the ones I use for my horses, they do not recommend it for dogs.
Get all of my wormer and vaccines as well as Rabies shots from Bill Boatman & Co. you can view the catalog at
www.billboatmancoinc.comThey are a fraction of the cost a Vet will charge you.

Does that safeguard goat wormer take care of everything? Or is there actually one wormer that can do it all? Im gonna look into that bill boatman online catalog now. Thank you.
