De-worming for dogs

from JoeUser Forums
Hi!
I’m a huge animal lover and I was wondering if anyone could help me solve
my problem…
I have a dog who’s name is Elvis and a cat who’s name is Princess!
I’ve discovered that Elvis had worms, (is it possible that he got from other pets???)
so I want to my vet and he gave him a de-worming medication in a tablet form but he wouldn’t swallow it!!
I didn’t want to use too much force so I tried wrapping it with some sausage but he some how figured it out!
please help me!!

Stick the pill inside a piece of cheese...that should work. If not...shove it in his mouth and rub it until he swallows. Yes, it is possible to get worms from other pets...eggs are usually in feces so it's possible he could have picked them up from there. Then again, it could have just been a random thing he picked up outside.

Good luck with that.

If he likes milk you could crush the tablet and mix it in. Sometimes I cut the tablet up into smaller pieces and "throw" them at the back of his throat. Then I hold his mouth closed and rub his throat --as zoo suggests.

about five months ago my dog Angie suffered from worms.
my friend told me to buy a de-worming pill and mix it with some chicken but
Angie figured it out and only ate a quarter…
that happened a couple of times unlit two months ago I’ve found a solution in a form of dry food that my Angie really liked and I didn’t have to force her at all !!!
you should try it …

you could also crush the tablet and mix it in with some soft tinned dog meat.
