Strongid is the name brand of several related deworming products for horses. The single letter after the name Strongid gives you information about the type of formulation - there is a daily powder you can put on grain as well as tablets and syringes of paste to give monthly. You should only use one formulation for each horse to ensure you don't overdose him.

You can usually deworm a puppy once he/she starts to eat on their own. However there are many different types of dewormer, and you should always check with your veterinarian first. Products like Strongid-T are ok to give to puppies under 6 weeks but should be monitered in case of any problems. 1cc per 22 pounds is given.
How long between times of de worming your horse?
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.
Puppy wormed one week ago is it normal for small white worms to be present but no fecal matter?
You never mentioned what kind of worms your dog was treated. For hook and round worms an over the counter treatment may be enough. If you go to the vet they will give your dog Strongid-T, which will take care of the hook and round worms. If you are seeing white worms coming out of your dogs rectum or you see white worms in the fecal matter, your dogs has Tape worms. There is no over the counter treatment that will get rid of Tape worms. You must go to the vet who will give you a little pill to give to your dog. If your dog has tape worms you may also find tiny and I mean tiny little off white, sesame seed looking things in your dogs bedding. These are Tape worms that have crawled out of your dogs rectum and dried up and died. Sometimes this is the only evidence that a dog owner will see and wonder what the heck they are. Now you know.
Why would there be a soft stool with some blood coming out of a kitten?
Your kitten needs to see his/her veterinarian. Take a new stool sample with you in a small plastic bag. When cats and kittens have parasites and/or digestive problems with their food, it is not uncommon for them to develop a little "colitis" or irritation in the intestinal wall. If a couple of treatments with strongid does not take care of the problem, perhaps another wormer or change in diet will.For the diet of kittens I recommend grain-free Wellness Healthy Kitten dry food and Wellness canned chicken or kitten formula. Be sure to keep a ceramic bowl of fresh water always available!

Foals may need to be more often if they are unthrifty looking or show a high egg count on a fecal exam.
How often should you deworm a horse?
Deworming A HorseThere is no one-size-fits-all worming program for horses. The "every 6-8 weeks" deworming program that has been in use for 30 years was layed out to target mainly a specific type of parasite that was the most problematic back then but that is no longer the main concern. It was also layed out with different deworming drugs in mind. This program is no longer the most effective or most appropriate deworming program. Most horses only need to be dewormed from 2-4 times a year to control parasites. The number of dewormings and the times to deworm will be based upon environmental conditions, the horses own immunity to parasites and the management practices such as keeping a horse stalled or picking up feces out of paddocks at least every other day. To determine an appropriate deworming program, horse owners should discuss their horse keeping situation with their vet and have fecal egg counts performed to determine which of their horses typically shed large numbers of parasite eggs and which tend to control their parasite burden with little chemical assistance. For the US this means that after the spring deworming in the northern US or fall deworming in the southern US a fecal sample should be collected and tested and the number of parasite eggs per gram of feces determined. If the horse was last dewormed with ivermectin, this sample should be taken 3 months after deworming. If the horse was last dewormed with moxidectin, then the sample should be taken 4 months after deworming. (These time periods allow for egg shedding to have begun again after the effects of the last deworming.) Then based upon the rate of egg shedding of each horse, a deworming program for that particular horse can be layed out. Many horses require deworming no more than twice a year to minimize parasite loads. You should deworm every six weeks and ensure you are rotating dewormers to prevent wormer immunity.
