If you see live worms in your puppy's feces after deworming, it is important to consult with a veterinarian to determine if further treatment is necessary. In some cases, a second dose of dewormer may be recommended. It is also important to follow the recommended dosing schedule and frequency of deworming to ensure effective prevention and treatment of worms in your puppy.
Here are a few additional things to keep in mind:
- The type of worms present can also affect whether or not you will see them in the feces. Some types of worms, such as roundworms and hookworms, are more likely to be visible, while others, such as tapeworms, may not be as easily seen.
- The size of the worms can also make a difference. Larger worms, such as roundworms, are more likely to be noticeable in the feces than smaller worms, such as hookworms.
Remember, deworming is an essential part of maintaining your puppy's health. By following the veterinarian's recommendations for deworming and taking note of any changes in your puppy's stools, you can help keep your furry friend healthy and free from worms.
