new to the flock Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 It sounds like tapeworm to me. Not all wormers will kill all worms and you may need to get one for tape worm...over here we use droncit......If the worms had been killed by the wormer they usually will not be seen as they disolve before being past.

Lancs Lad Posted July 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 where do they pick it up from? Always quite cautious about him sniffing and eating other terds..... He hasnt done the bum scratching or anything like that. Been using the Bob Martin all in one dewormer http://pressies4dogs.co.uk/add-to-basket.p...1&minorID=0 assume that this does the job................. the boy was chewing feathers last night after I had shot the birds..............but the size was too uniform to be "left overs"....

new to the flock Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 Carrying birds, rabbits, eating mice,eating rabbit/deer pellets walking where another carrier has been and then licking his pads. The do everything wormers do everything but what they miss. Buy a good quality wormer for the job. NTTF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codling99 Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 dogs can get worms from all sorts when their up the mountain mate.ya best bet is to worm him with a good quality wormer,then worm him at regular intervals ,to stop any further infestations.they recommend you worm a dog every few months,but depends on how much he gets out and about. thats presuming it is worms he s got mind,may have ate a bowl of rice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
