Kind of aggrevating how the shipping cost listed on the first page said 3.81 then it went up all the way through the check out procedure until it ended up at 11.70 for only ten Canine all wormer pills on the vetnpetdirect website. Then they listed each pill at 1.50 on the first page and at check out they were 1.77 I hope they enjoy doing business this way.

I also use canine all wormer but a lot of people make the mistake of not hitting them again in twenty-one days. It doesn't get ther eggs, in twenty-one days the larve are mature enough to kill but not lay eggs. I don't claim to be an expert but thats the way an old timer explained it to me.
Hunt 54, Get the stuff called Equimax ( ivermectin 1.87%, praziquantel 14.03%) Give 1/2 cc for up to 30 lbs. That will take care of tapes and heartworm. If you give it to them today all tapes will be gone tomorrow Get Strongid Paste (pyrantel pamoate) for hook and rounds,1/2 cc for up to 30 lbs. That info comes from an article in July 2004 American Beagler. I used it for a long time but as stated Canine all wormer is the way to go. Hope that helps, Dave.
PS it took about 2 weeks to get my order from vet-n-pet. keep in mind the prices are AU. currency.

Why would i need Equimax and Canine All wormer???

I use Ivomec for heartworms and Canine All wormer for the rest of them.

Why do u have to regive them the Canine stuff after 21 days thats not what the bottle says it says every 3 months.

hi dave(spruce ridge beagler). i worm as you do. have been using the horse wormer for over 30 years. zimecterin gold gets the tapes good(ivermectin with proziquant) i alternate every other month with panacur and/or stronget T. absolutly the cheapest way to have an effective deworming program. the vets and major drug companies do not advertize these facts. no profit

You don't need both, I was suggesting the equimax to get rid of your tapes now as you will have to wait on your all wormer to come in thats all.
Already explained the 21 days but do as you like, Dave
