No. You should not attempt to use dewormers that are formulated for horses on dogs. The concentration is very high and it is extremely easy to overdose your dog if you miscalculate the dosage. Also, if your dogs is already on heartworm preventative, then there is no reason to try to deworm your dog with other dewormers without first having a fecal sample examined by your vet as most heartworm preventatives also treat for GI parasites.

∙ 11y agoI would talk to your veterinarian about this - there are dewormers that are safe for pregnant and lactating dogs, but the safety is dependent upon both the formulation and the dose.
In recent years, veterinarians have started relying on spot-on flea treatments with cross-protection against intestinal parasites such as Frontline Plus or Revolution. However, your veterinarian can better advise you about what medication to use.

∙ 10y agoNo - cats are much smaller than dogs, and are much more sensitive to the harmful side effects of several dewormers commonly used in dogs. You should always use a cat-labeled dewormer for cats.

Is anybody using horse dewormer for their dog because its cheaper and effective?
I certainly hope not. Horses are so much larger than even the biggest breed of dog. Horse wormer could kill a dog. I'm not sure about the 'cheaper' part either. Horse dewormer is expensive, possibly more so than dog wormer. Always consult your vet when it comes to the health of your pets, whether it be horse or dog. Wormer is medicine and when given incorrectly can be a disaster for the animal.
