It is necessary
- - bran;
- - sweet potato;
- - antihelminthic agent.
Instructions
Step 1
Include wheat or oat bran in your pet's diet. For an animal weighing less than 15 kg, add half a teaspoon to the usual serving, and for larger ones, add two tablespoons.
Step 2
Take your dog to the veterinarian and ask him to prescribe a suitable herbal complex aimed at expelling the worms from the body. Be sure to check the dosage and method of application of the medicinal composition.
Step 3
Give your four-legged friend a sweet potato or sweet potato. It will help to improve digestion and strengthen the stomach, which suffers from helminthic invasion. A large individual can be given 1-2 tablespoons of sweet potatoes a day, and a dog weighing less than 15 kg - two teaspoons.
Step 4
Add hot spices to your food. By creating an aggressive environment in the intestines, they contribute to the complete expulsion of parasites from the body. Start with a few grains or drops and increase the dose until your pet has given up on the "spicy meal."
Step 5
When choosing narrowly targeted antihelminthic drugs, be sure to consult your veterinarian about the appropriateness of their use. It is very important to know the dosage and route of administration for your dog as it is toxic. It is necessary to take into account the physiological state of the animal, the state of health of the body, what other drugs are given to the dog, and how they will affect the absorption and action of antihelminthic drugs.
Step 6
Do not give anthelmintics to your dog during pregnancy or lactation, as this can have a negative effect on the health of the young. It is best to do the expulsion of worms 10-14 days before the scheduled mating. If it was not possible to treat the mother before mating, the puppies can be rid of the worms no earlier than 21 days after birth.
Step 7
Ask your veterinarian about the complications and side effects of treatment and how you can help your pet cope with them.
