Hello Lora. I have to agree with "K9Cats". I've never heard of a safe and sure fire home remedy for worms in pets and I don' think it is worth the risk to experiment with store brands or home cures. Please work with your vet to solve this problem as it is not that costly and offers a high return of effectiveness. I am sure you will be glad you did! Good luck and best health wishes for all.

Intestinal worms, Diatomacious earth. Natural. Must be food grade. Even for humans. "They" say 75% of humans have worms. Vets hate me. It cuts down on their sales of poisons. Vaccine poison, worm poison, skin poison. My old fashioned vet loves me for it. Heart worm, you must see and treat via the vet. Very dangerous. If you suspect heart worm or live in an area that has heart worm you must test via the vet.

I have worked for a Veterinarian for over 27 years. I have to tell you there is not a home remedy to get rid of worms in your pets. I don't care how many people tell you otherwise. Please call your Veterinarian and take in a fecal sample so your Dr. can prescribe the appropriate medication for your pet.

Go to a feedstore and get a bag of diatomaceous earth. Call first and find out if it's sold in small sizes. It cost me $2 for a 1 pound bag.
It can be mixed in the animal's food or applied to its coat. It works and it's cheap:
"Pets:
In case a bug decides to take up residence in their fur. You can protect them and yourself with Fossil Shell Flour (diatomaceous earth). When lightly rubbed into their coats it is very effective against fleas, ticks, lice, and other pests on pet dogs, cats, and their premises. You can puff it into the soft furniture in your house, the rug and all over the basement too.
Diatomaceous Earth Kills Pests Naturally - It is a mineral dust mined from quarries that kills the insects when they come in contact with it and it does vaporize or go away over time. Once it's in place it works every time and it's nontoxic..
It can also be used as an organic wormer and will kill any worms or parasites the pets may have.
* Cows/Horses get 1-2 oz per day
* Sheep/Goats/Hogs get 1/2 oz per day
* Cats get 1/2 teaspoon per day
* Large Cats - 1 teaspoon
* Kittens - 1/4 teaspoon
* Dog 100 lbs + - 2 tablespoon
* 50 - 100lbs - 1 tablespoon
* Under 50 lbs - 1 teaspoons
* Mini dogs - 1/2 teaspoon ..." -

I would try pumpkin seed oil. Buy the capsules and open one up and put on his food. I don't know how long you would do this but its a vegetable oil. I think that pumpkin seed iol is okay for dogs. It prevents parasites and tapeworms in people so why wouldn't it work for dogs. Dogs can have pumpkin can't they? use 1/2 capsule in am for puppy. Give it a try.

I want to use diatomaceous earth to treat my pregnant dog for worms. I know that because of her size I need to give her 1/2 teaspoon full. I need to know how long I should continue the treatment and want to know if it is safe to use with a pregnant dog. I would appreciate any advice on these two questions. Thank you.

I just used Neem Leaf by TheraNEEM organix and Wormwood Combination by Kroeger Herb. Then I had to use a probiotic on the food to help the good bacteria. We are worm free. The food you feed the dog needs to be for a sensitive tummy for awhile, low protein %. Don't know why, but it worked.
Has anyone used tobacco for worms? I thought that was a old recipe for treating worms, but not sure what type?

Hello,
First of all, do you know which type of worms your baby has? Please take a fecal sample to your Veterinarian so he/she can do a fecal float to determine which type there are.. ie: Tapeworms, hook worms, roundworms? I have worked for a Veterinarian for over 27 years and I know for a fact that tobacco can be fatal to a dog/cat. Your veterinarian will dispense the proper medication to your fur-baby to rid him of any parasites. Good luck
Our dog of 3 years looks like skin and bones, he is fed 2 times a day. I thought maybe he may have parvo, we have no money for a vet, are there any home remedies?

What home products can I buy to get rid of worms from a puppy. I don't always have money to buy wormer, so what home remedy can I use other than garlic?
