There is not any problem with deworming your dog from a technical standpoint monthly, but if you are finding yourself having to do this there might be a bigger problem at hand. There could be some resistant parasites present in the gastrointestinal tract that require a different medication. I would submit a fecal sample to your veterinarian or perhaps even to a laboratory to have them analyze the sample and check for the type of parasites. You might have greater benefit from the use of a different drug besides Drontal Plus. Hope this helps! Hope Thor is doing OK!
