Intestinal Worms

Your dog can be infected by a variety of intestinal worms. Regular worming is essential to protect your dog, and to protect your family. Some intestinal worms can be transmitted to people, and can even cause blindness in children. Young pups are very prone to intestinal worms - most pups are born with them, and they’ll pick up more from eggs contaminating the ground. The major intestinal worms are roundworm, hookworm, whipworm and tapeworm. These must be controlled to prevent problems such as vomiting, diarrhoea, weight loss and anaemia. Please call us if you require advice regarding the products and frequency to use wormers for your pet.
