Going to worm puppies with this ,does anyone know how muck I should give them,and how oftened do I need to worm the mother.Is this a good wormer or should I use something else?

I don't think i would use this on pups, big dogs ok. Use regular puppy wormer can buy at Tracter Supply or Wal-mart, liquid form.

I use safeguard on pups all the time I give them 2cc at 6 weeks 3 days in a row.Safeguard is a very safe wormer.

here ya go Ron, I use it on mine. They have it at tractor supply in the 100 ml bottle. This site has the dosages

The 100 ml bottle at Tractor Supply is labeled as Goat Wormer. It's given in same dosage as it's exactly the same minus the label.

I give safeguard wormer a big thumbs down. Call and ask the vet before using. My vet says NO! I took a pup to the vet and it had tape worms. She had been wormed at 2,4, and 6 weeks with Nemex2. I wormed her at 8 weeks and 10 weeks with Safeguard horse wormer (enough for double her body weight plus some) and she was still wormy. Vet said she has seen a lot of this problem in dogs, goats, and cattle. Safeguard is a waste of time and money IMO. Just use generic Drontal Plus when they hit 8 weeks. Saving money is great, but not at the expense of unhealthy pups.

Safe-Guard is no longer effective at the current recommended dosage.

You must give them 1cc per 4.4lbs twice a day for 3 days to get rid of worms. It does work, but because of the dosage required it is expensive and inconvenient.
