Re: Roundworms

Many are under the wrong assumption that adult dogs who get their monthly Heartworm Pill are killing adult worms in the gut. The product only kills larve.

Labradors because they put anything and everything into their mouths can get worms of any type. Yes they get them from their mothers too.

Adult hunting dogs or those who are exposed to the environment need twice annual deworming with Fenbendazole/ Panacur even if signs of worms are not present. Otherwise you run the risk of an major worm infestation that can be deadly.

As far as allergies, worms actually can be the cause as they can ulcerated the lining of the gut and cause leaky gut syndrome that allows the immune system to see food as an invader.

Worm your dogs, it is not something good for their immune system . All worms eventually will go to the lungs if not treated. It can become a fatal disease if it gets that far along.
