What is the best way of deworming a dog instead of giving harmful deworming tablets to be given after every 2 months that are suggested by a veterinary doctors .TIA

Dr. Tajunnisa M

There's no natural remedy or substitute for deworming. You can deworm your pet once in 4/5 months after reaching one year. The vegetables and fruits rich in fibre can only help in easy expulsion of worms with stools but they have no antihelmintic activity.

Dr. Anukarna Singh

It's very important for you to deworm your pet regularly using allopathic deworming meds initially, which can later be used in combination with some enzyme based dewormers. The worms that your pet might be carrying (if the mother is not dewormed approximately) can also harm you or your family members. Considering the fact that dogs no matter how careful you are lick their paws after walks and lick contaminate water sometimes it's very important to deworm. If given at appropriate doses the meds will not harm
