Does worming tablets cause diarrhoea in dogs? My puppy was given a worming tablet last Sunday and would have been due for another yesterday however I did not as he only just recovered from the diarrhoea. (we were advised it was one every week until he is 12 weeks) he pooped normally but today he has not pooped this morning and threw up a little it was white. He had some breakfast. Should I be concerned? Also do you advise I should give him another worming tablet today or wait another week?

Yes, deworming tablets can cause some diarrhea in puppies, but it could also be due to the dead worms moving through Hunter's intestines. Given that he has just recovered from diarrhea, I recommend waiting another week before giving him the next deworming tablet. It's fine to deworm him every two weeks until he is 12 weeks of age, then he should be dewormed monthly until six months of age. After that, he needs to be dewormed every three months. Good luck, I hope this helps!

It could be that Lex is suffering from intestinal worms which are very common in puppies and would cause diarrhea. It's a good sign that he is playful and active as well as eating, so the worms would be at the top of my differential list. Other possibilities include a GI illness or the diet you are feeding him. I would give him a deworming treatment such as Panacur which you can get OTC. It's a three day course of treatment, and he will need another course of treatment two weeks after the first ends to kill all the worms. He should then be dewormed every month until he is six months old and then should be deworming every three months thereafter. If he is up to date on his deworming treatments, then I would have Lex seen by a vet for a health check.

Strongid will take care of the worms but if the diarrhea is still occurring then you should get her rechecked. There may be a bacterial infection or something causing it at this point. At 6 weeks if she is other wise healthy they can start her vaccines also Make sure she is on a good food as a poor diet can also lead to diarrhea

Finn is so handsome! A common cause of diarrhea in puppies is intestinal worms. It could be he has a heavy burden of intestinal worms causing these symptoms. If he isn't up to date on his deworming treatments, I would give him one now and another in two weeks. After that, he should be dewormed every three months. Should he be up to date on his deworming treatments, I would take him into the vet to have him checked out to determine the cause of his diarrhea. Best of luck, I hope this helps!
