I took my dog for dewoming yesterday her first set of puppy shot . it included the deworming (strongid-t). She pooped out a worm at 5 am. Is it just the medicine working or should i go to the vet. It's to early in the mouning to call the vet their not open. Is there anything eles i can do for my dog. In three weeks i have to take her for her other set of vacinations. She is 9 weeks. An italian greyhound chiwhuahua.
Answers:
It is normal for the pups to poop worms after being dewormed. If it was dead thats very good. some types of worms you wont be able to see in the poop, but others you can.
It will take a while for her to get rid of them so I wouldn't worry. I would continue with the meds so this gets cleared up.
That's normal, you may even see more worms, or worm segments, in her stools. It may also make her a bit lethargic and less hungry for the next day or so, but if she's still acting funny after that, then you should check with the vet.
thats pretty normal.
The wormer is doing it's job.
She should be pooping out worms.
Other than good socialization in a safe environment, gentle training and lots of love, just enjoy your puppy.
Remember, your puppy is too young to be in high dog traffic areas (i.e. the dog park, pet stores, etc.), however, you can carry her in these places. Petco, Petsmart, et al are good places to socialize a puppy. Just don't put her on the floor or in the grass/dirt outside. Even though she has had a shot, she is still at risk for parvo and other illnesses. You can however start enrolling her in a puppy kindergarten class. Just make sure it is at a private facility that takes good precautions and is clean.
Good luck
Yes, that's normal. It'll get dewormed along with each set of shots it'll receive. After the series of shots is completed, you'll need to start it on heartworm prevention, to keep it free of heartworm and intestinal worms throughout its life.
