How many doses, and how far apart should I give drontal plus to my dog for hookworms?

Your pet should get two doses 2 weeks apart because this is the life cycle of the worm. Keeping Tabitha on a monthly heartworm preventative (which has an intestinal dewormer in it as well) can help prevent reinfection. Thanks for visiting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Take care and I hope you get rid of those hookworms soon.
