For novice shit shoveling officers, they must still be in a state of ignorance about dog deworming.
Before figuring out how often dogs are dewormed and what kind of deworming medicine to use, let's take a look at the common parasites in dogs~ (No high energy, rest assured)
Common dog parasites: roundworm, hookworm, whipworm, heartworm
Ascaris should be familiar to everyone, and some people are also infected. Generally, after the onset of the disease, there will be gradual weight loss and loss of appetite. If there are small white spots in the vomit or feces, it is likely to be Ascaris.
Hookworms can cause your dog's coat to be dull, red and festering, fall off easily, and have bloody or black stools.
Whipworms are often scattered in trash cans, dirty soil, and excrement areas. It is a parasitic disease that parasites in the cecum and colon of dogs. They enter the cecum and develop into adult worms, sucking the blood of dogs. Severe infection can cause
Common dog external parasites: fleas, ticks, ear mites
Dog fleas feed on blood, and the bitten skin will cause redness, itching, allergies and other symptoms.
Dog tick is a high-risk zoonotic insect, it is also a blood-sucking worm, dog tick like to bury the head in the dog's skin to suck blood, leaving only the body outside.
Dog ear mites are parasitic on the ears of dogs, and infected dogs often feel itchy, so they often scratch their ears, causing bleeding in the external auditory canal, bacterial infection, and neurological symptoms such as encephalitis.
Having said so much, in fact, how often dogs are dewormed depends on the growth cycle of these common parasites. Let's take a look at the time it takes for the eggs to grow into adults.
The above are the growth cycles of the more common dog parasites. The longest one is roundworm and it only takes 4 weeks, while scabies and fleas can be fully grown in 2 weeks, so dogs must be dewormed once a month.
Knowing the frequency of dog deworming, we should pay attention when choosing dog deworming medicine.

Aforana is the first domestic canine oral anthelmintic that can kill both dog ticks and dog flea parasites, and the ingredients of Aforana are also patented, mainly by inhibiting the chloride ions controlled by GABA receptors

5. The efficacy of anthelmintics is quickly absorbed
Developed countries have replaced the drops with oral ones. The super credible is the oral beef flavor chewable tablets. The palatability is very good.
