Jack I have used this product on every bitch I have bred with.
I normally use a drontal or similar all wormer just before implant.
Then for the last 21 days of pregnecy I use panacur 100 sheep and goat every day until whelping.
With 21 days to go 3 days in a row 10mil then 6 mil for the rest of pregency.
I also use this on mum and pups every 2 weeks for 10 weeks starting at 2 weeks of age.
At 12 weeks I use cydecton plus tape alternating every month with another wormer drontal ect.
Hope this helps.

Jack, we us a good all wormer for pregnant ones. Fido's closasole wormer was just suggested as an occasional alternative to the usual worming of dogs, as it has different ingredients in it. Just be aware though that it doesn't do whipworm.

Wouldn't it be safer to worm the bitch before she goes in pup? Surely it'd hardly be necessary to worm her again during her gestation?
Roundworms lie dormant in the bitch and when they get in pup they then break out and infest the milk. This transfers the worms to the pups.
You will reduce this burden on the pups by worming the bitch with Fenbendazole 10%....every day from 6 weeks pregnant untill the pups are born
What dosage of the 10% fenbendazole is recommended every day from 6 weeks Yvonne ?

Jack I use Ranvet 2 weeks before they whelp and 2 weeks after they whelp they are very safe and I start doing the pups at the 2 week mark with Troy puppy syrup and again with the pups at 4 weeks and then I weigh the pups and break the Ranvet Tablet down to suit the dose eg: if the pups 2kgs I would use 1/4 of a 10kg or you could keep using the Puppy Syrup and do the Ranvet Tablet at 8 weeks.I have know people to use the human wormers also. Tell me jack how did you go with the box work for your pup
