I know that you can give puppies over 6 weeks old Safe-Guard® Canine Dewormer, but I have never used it.
no you should not
It would be best to just cut down the dosage that the directions give. For instance, if you're using a liquid dewormer (which you should be using w/ a puppy), it will usually say 1 tsp for every 5 lbs. I have a puppy that is about 2 lbs so I just cut the dosage down to 1/2 tsp. FYI: received info from vet office.
Breeding females can pass parasites to their pups both in the womb and through milk, so deworming the female is extremely important. Most of the commonly used dewormers on the market in the US for dogs can be used in pregnant animals, but the specific times to deworm to prevent infection of pups before and right after birth should be discussed with your veterinarian as the recommendations are different for the different deworming drugs.
Any breed of dog should deliver a puppy in 30 minutes once active contractions have started. No more than 4 hours should pass between each puppy.
Puppies, like all dogs, should have access to water at all times.
wrap it in CHEESE! ... it the dog doesn't have weight problems
No, sheep and goats should not have the same kind of wormer unless specified it is for both animals. Goats need a higher concentration of wormer than sheep.
It's definitely a sign that the puppy has worms. Give it a de-wormer according to package instructions and it should be fine. If the bloating persists, take it to a vet.
If you are using Diatomaceous Earth as the wormer, you will give 1 tablespoon per day.
if you are training your puppy then you should used soft treats but you can give you puppy any treat that is intended for puppies
Puppy chow.
First of all do you know what type of worms your puppy has? You should also weigh your puppy. Get on your scale and weigh yourself first, then get the puppy and weigh both of you. Subtract the weight of yourself alone from the weight of you and the puppy and you will get the weight of your pup. The instructions for how much to give your pup is on the bottle of the dewormer. They use terms such as ml which is the same as 1cc in a syringe. If you do not know what you are doing, take your pup into see your Veterinarian and also take in a stool sample from your puppy. If you do deworm at home, be sure to repeat the deworming in 10-14 days.
