Hello, I have worked for a Veterinarian for over 27 years. There is NOT an over the counter pill that will take care of worms. Please take your pet and a fecal sample to your Dr., so he/she can determine which worms to treat and what medication to use. Good luck.

Diatomacious earth. Must be food grade; the other has poisons in it for the garden. Google dosage. Safe, inexpensive, natural, simple. Good to keep on hand and dose regularly. Will not kill heartworm, only intestinal worms.

I agree with Patty Lynn, go to your local pet store. I've gotten money saving tips from the staff in the grooming salon at PetSmart. My dog recently had a sore on his tail (not the but) and when I called the vet with a simple question (can I put antibiotic cream on it?) They would not even give me a yes or no answer. I was told to bring him in that he may need an antibiotic. I never took him in because I could tell it was not infected. I put the cream on it as PetSmart told me and the sore was gone in two days. I'm researching vets and I'm probably going to change.

Yes, there are many different kinds of worm pills you can buy without going to a vet. Go to your local pet store, and ask them what they recommend for the type of worm that you describe.
Does anyone know of an organic (home remedy) for worms in dogs? I have tried several over the counter treatments and my Yorkie still has worms. I am disabled and can not afford to take him to the vet, and my vet will not let me make payments. It really hurts me to see my dog so uncomfortable. Please help!

Diatomacious earth, food grade only. The pool or garden D E has poison in it. If you dog has worms that you can see, poor baby has probable tape worms. Tape worms come from eating fleas. The light colored or white segments you see are proglottids (egg sacks). You must rid the house and dog of fleas. Dry borax 1 and half cups dry per carpeted room, a little in their bed and a little more on the furniture they use. Vacuum after 2 weeks so life cycle is complete. Yard, Google Cedercide . Both very effective and natural. Quit with the poison between the shoulder blades. Work on healthy diet. No pet food aisle grocery store food. That is pure allergy and sickness. Build immune system don't break it with vaccines. Read ingredients of vaccines on any anti vaccine site and you will never injure or kill a loved one again. Vaccines are for moneymaking pharma companies. Nothing else. Children cannot be forced. Nothing in my constitution that says government (including schools) can put a foreign substance into my body.
Is it necessary to treat dogs for worms with Ivomectin, even when they don't have worms or signs of worms?
I think my dog has hookworms. I am out of work. What home remedy can be used to treat her for hook and tape worms? Also, if I misdiagnosed her about the hookworms, would the remedy hurt her?

I want to know if I can de-worm my German Shepherd female, when she is pregnant?
I have a 10lb dog and he has worms. I don't have the money to take him to the vet. How can I get rid of them?
