Been hearing that johnsons are shit, frontline don't work as well anymore, and stronghold is what's needed.

Are you sure it is for the dog and you aren't self medicating?

Usually go for Drontal, although we've tried other brands recently too.

Over the counter stuff is crap,

Milbemax tablet from your vet. should be around £5 for a dog under 25kg.

Milbemax treats all intestinal worms as well as lung worm which many of the others don't.

Another vote for drontal. My mum's three dogs were all on it and my little terrier has been on it for 5 years now and no signs of worms.

Their chewy tabs, Molly eat it up yum yum, the border took some persuasion. Aware of the methods.

Also, not that I go religously with everything they try and , sell , you , but these tabs of 10 -25 kgs say one per month ....

Yes, and it says one tablet per month for 17.20 4 tablets total ... So by my thinking or lack of, for a 11 kg dog, I could give one tablet every 6 weeks.

Am I the only person who doesn't give their dog a regular worming treatment?

Spoke to a lovely old dear in an independent pet shop and she advised me it would be fine to just treat him if he ever got worms rather than administering a preventative medicine.

The same goes for flea treatments, if he ever gets fleas I'll treat him.

Are there problems with this approach?
