Most foals don't need to be dewormed until they start eating grass on pasture; even then, provided the adult horses have been regularly dewormed there isn't much need for a foal to be dewormed. I would suggest not developing a standard program, but rather working with your veterinarian to address worming issues as needed in specific foals.

How often can you deworm?
Because parasite infection rates vary based upon geographic location and weather conditions, management conditions and the individual resistance to parasites of each horse, there is no one-size-fits-all deworming program for horses. It is important to assess all of the risk factors and have fecal egg counts run at appropriate times to determine the horse's normal resistance to the parasites and if there are any issues with parasites being resistant to the drugs in use when planning a deworming program for each horse. Deworming may be recommended as infrequently as twice a year or as much as 5 times a year during the season when parasite reinfection rates are highest. So, contact your vet and discuss how to go about planning a deworming program.

How many times do you deworm your puppy?
Due to the high incidence of parasitism in puppies and the risks posed to humans by hookworms and roundworms, the Center for Disease Control recommends that puppies be started on a preventative deworming schedule at 2 weeks of age and continued every 2 weeks until they are at least 8 weeks of age. Some veterinarians recommend continuing this deworming program until a pup is 12 weeks of age or is started on a monthly heartworm preventative that also treats hookworms and roundworms. For puppies who have not been dewormed regularly starting from 2 weeks of age, fecal examination to determine their infection status and then appropriate deworming treatments should be performed. Your veterinarian is he best source of information on deworming your puppies and should always be involved in setting up a deworming program.
What is an effective horse rotational deworming program?
The standard 3-way rotation that has been used for years is no longer considered a reasonable way to control parasites in horses. This is because of the development of resistant parasites to the drugs that have been in use so long. There are 4 classes of dewormer on the market in the US: benzimendazoles --fenbendazole, oxibendazole, other chemicals that end in -azole (there is a long list) pyrantels---pyrantel pamoate (paste) and pyrantel tartrate (daily dewormer) avermectins---ivermectin and moxidectin praziquantel In more than 90% of areas tested strongyles are now resistant to fenbendazole and in more than 40% they are resistant to pyrantel. There has even been 1 study showing strongyles becomeing resistant to ivermectin. So, the standard rotation in that link you are likely not going to be effectively killing strongyles for 1, maybe 2 and even as many as 3 out of 3 dewormings. And the problem is only going to continue to grow. The top equine veterinary parasitologists now recommend strategic deworming rather than simply putting a horse on a rotational deworming program. With a strategic deworming program, parasite contamination of pastures is controlled with 2-4 dewormings per year based upon each horse's own resistance to GI parasites. A wonderful resource for figuring out a deworming program is the strategic deworming webinar available online through The Horse Magazine: http://www.thehorse.com/Video.aspx?vID=183 The veterinarian who presented the topic lays out all the information necessary for a horse owner and veterinarian to work out a strategic deworming program.
Can you deworm a dog at 4 weeks?

The tried and true method is good old fashioned Ivermectin. The easy way to remember is to do it when your farrier comes every 6 to 8 weeks. During more worm ridden seasons, such as the summer months in the south, you should also do the Daily Feed Thru Wormers such as Strongid.
