Okay I have 2 dogs and 2 puppies. The dogs are about 20 – 25 lbs. And the puppies 5-8 lbs. The puppies symptom’s : they look normal and then when they eat they look like a Skeleton then after they eat a lot because they have a huge appetite. Then after they eat their belly’s blow up like a balloon! I see no worms in poop. Until I gave them goat dewormer ( its safe ) Then they came out either that day or the next but not after that. They have been treated like that for a month now and its not working. The pups are turning 11 weeks this Wednesday.
Does hook worms come out in poop?
They don’t vomit. or cough. They act perfectly healthy ! By the way the other two dogs have been treated to they are the parents of the pups.
Oh..please list places in South Carolina ( Gilbert – Lexington) Area on where i can get dewormer so i can take it the dogs not the dogs to the vet.

I have a 5.5lb, 1yr4mo old male Chihuahua. I took him in for his annual check up and when they did the fecal test they found he had roundworms and FLUKE eggs in his stool. I religiously give him his Interceptor medicine (to prevent heartworm and various worms) but he still had roundworm. What I am concerned about is the FLUKE. In my area the FLUKE (worm) is very very rare and the vet doesn’t know where he picked it up. I have researched and know all about the trasmission through fecal matter…….my little guy is super clean, very well behaved- he doesn’t dig in the dirt, is only outside to go potty only rarely trys to eat stuff (like pieces of bark) off the ground. I closely supervise him and take things out of his mouth he isn’t supposed to have. He does NOT eat raw fish and is not exposed to lake water etc. (some of the possible ways to get Fluke) He is being treated with medicine right now. (He had no symptoms of infection) Please tell me your dogs experience!!! Are they healthy?

also, a web site I can refer to would also be helpful, although not necessary.
