The Dogmother Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 You ought to have found lots of information, the FAQ section is a good place to start. You will need to worm quarterly from 20 weeks using Flubenvet - either the powder or the ready mixed pellets from Marriages. I hope this helps.

Egluntyne Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Yours can be wormed now. Depends how young your friends younger ones are, but personally, I would wait till they are at POL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Of those two, Flubenvet is the only licensed wormer. You can buy it in either a tub of powder which you add to their pellets, or as pre-mixed pellets straight from Marriages (which is what I use) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Not if you are using Flubenvet, and you need to worm quarterly. This information is all in the FAQ section of the forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
