last week a person i know left town and called me after she had been away for two days to let me know noone had been feeding her dog which has 7 puppies i went around there and was disgusted with how bad the mother looked i could actually see her shoulder bone moving in the joint when she walked she was so thin ... i took her to the vet and she had 7 different kinds of worms .. this was after being wormed apparently the week before by the coles brand of dog wormer ... the vet then told me the coles brand while it is expensive doesnt get all worms like i thought and he gave me three tablets at 2.35 each and a bottle of wormer for the puppies for 12 dollars each that would kill all types of worms .. clearly the worms wasnt the dogs only problem but the vet told me if left untreated dogs look terrible when they have worms and they dont gain weight .
i will only ever get my worming tablets from my vet from now on ... it really opened my eyes with the coles brand
