Did you worm her prior to mating Martin??If so should suffice until 40th day where you can then start worming her everyday until pups are 7days old...

Check out worming in search box for all the info you need...

There should be no problem worming her now. Up to five weeks after mating is safe.

I have always done exactly what Paddy says - from day 40 til pups are 7 days old but the suggested doseage is from day 40 til pups are two days old i.e. 25 days provided that the bitch whelps on day 63. It would be less if she whelped earlier and more if she whelped later.

This is taken from the manufacturers recommendations -

Pregnant dogs:
1ml per 4kg bodyweight daily from day 40 of pregnancy continuously to 2 days post-whelping (approximately 25 days).

(= 25mg fenbendazole/kg bodyweight daily).

Practical dosage recommendations:

4kg 1ml daily for approx. 25 days

8kg 2ml daily for approx. 25 days

12kg 3 ml daily for approx. 25 days

20kg 5ml daily for approx. 25 days

40kg 10ml daily for approx. 25 days

For dogs weighing over 40kg, an extra 1ml is required for each additional 4kg bodyweight.

As treatment of pregnant dogs is 98% effective, puppies from these dogs should themselves be treated with a three day course at 2 and 5 weeks of age.

I would never worm a bitch in pup until she is at least 6weeks,
the embryo's are not properly formed until 3weeks old.
pregnancy is divided into three stages, the first trimester (mating to day 21), second trimester (day 21-42) and third trimester (day 42 to full term). Gestation lasts an average 63 days (60-67) so it is important to note the service date so that due whelping date can be calculated.

The bitch should be de-wormed at breeding time and during the second trimester to reduce environmental contamination. Products include Drontal plus (praziquantel, febantel and pyrantel) and Panacur (fenbendazole). Before the mating the bitch should receive a booster vaccination against parvovirus, distemper, adenovirus, coronavirus, and leptospirosis to ensure that an adequate immunity is developed and concentrated in the colostrum to be passed to the pups for protection during the first few months of life.
