I use Kusuri wormer plus which has the same ingredients and you can buy on the web.Recommended to me by an international breeder-not name dropping just know he wouldn't use if it wasn't good!

IMO I don't get why this should be done as a routine without cause to do so...
I just don't get it. And I've put this down time and time again. Anyway...nuff said. Sandra, good luck. xx |

I only do it on a routine basis becuase I let them graze in my garden and sometimes you dont know what they can pick up from there, cat poo etc etc. For the same reason my dog is dewormed on a yearly bassis. Again correct me if I'm wrong.

But thats just it, you dont know, Sam. Might not be anything. Might be something. Wouldnt a poo sample to check first be a bit kinder? Then, action if there is something found - before going in gung-ho with treatment regardless.?
I dunno...its probably me being female but it seems harsh when you dont actually have any evidence that they have anything wrong. xx |
