Is It Safe???

[Stewy 1]

Everyday cleaning i never noticed a thing but yesterday out walking and my 2 bitches went toilet and i saw the worms one of the bitches is in pup.

Is it safe to worm my bitch if she is in pup.

[sh 08 17]

Tobacco is poisonous if eaten, so I would def avoid that. The vet will tell how much wormer to use, you can def use wormers on pregnant dogs, but ask the vet about dosage.

[waidmann 105]

was she wormed before mating?how far is she now? i'm not sure which medications can be used when in pup but there is bound to be something the vet can give you

atb

[Trigger 26]

you can worm her.

[lurchers 2,821]

you can give her a mild dose of panacur mate as the vet will tell you this so its doesnt damage the pups and as for tobbaco a bloke 30yrs ago used to use it a swore by it but i would rather use the real stuff.atb

Tobacco!!!!.......... Fecking hell, this is 2010 for christs sake, there's enough modern stuff out there to do the job, even if the bitch is pregnant, which by the way is best wormed just before, or just after conception.

 

Tobacco, if it does work (as i've never tried it) from what i've read, causes a dog top be nausious and it vomits the worms up, now seeing as tape worms attach themselves to your dogs innards, that would be some fecking wretch to get them up and out, knock a poor dog right off its feet!

Im quoting from my "the dog owners vetinary handbook" here:

 

The bitch should be wormed before mating, at or after 45 days pregnant, a day or so after whelping and every two weeks after that untill the puppies are 12 weeks old, with a larvicidal wormer from your vet so that any worm larvea migrating through her body tissues will also be killed.

 

The puppies should be wormed at two weeks of age and thereafter every two weeks untill they are twelve weeks old. Worming should continue at four, five and six months of age.

 

After this ALL dogs should be wormed every three to six months.

Check with the vet as

Drontal Plus, used at the recommended dose, is not effective against somatic larvae of nematodes in pregnant bitches. Currently, it is admitted that only Albendazole, Fenbendazole (Panacur®) and Oxfendazole (Synanthic®, Dolthene®) can be effective against somatic larvae of roundworms (Toxocara canis and possibly Ancylostoma caninum).Nevertheless, it has to be stressed that this claim requires special administration protocols with following characteristics:

 

Higher doses than the standard recommended dose (e.g. Fenbendazole: 50 mg/kg daily from day 45-50 of pregnancy to day 12-18 after birth - Duwel et al 1978).

A longer treatment duration than the standard treatment (e.g. above mentioned Fenbendazole treatment). Mebendazole (Telmin®) and Flubendazole (Flubenol®) are ineffective against somatic larvae of roundworm (Petrich and Stoye 1981, Bosse and Stoye 1981).

 

As studies have not been conducted in bitches in early pregnancy, Drontal® Plus should not be used during the first half of gestation.Studies have been carried out, to confirm the tolerance of Drontal Plus during pregnancy and lactation: 3 groups of pregnant bitches were treated with 6 or 10 times the therapeutic dose or with placebo on the 20th and 10th day ante partum and againone and three weeks post partum. The treatment had no effect on duration of pregnancy, litter size, birth weight, mortality of the pups, clinico-chemicalparameters, haematological parameters, clinical condition or development of the pups.
