My dog won't eat, no vet nearby. What deworming medicine helps?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Male | unneutered | 13 lbs

Please recommend some general medications that could be easily available at any pharmacy store used for deworming in dogs. He is not eating for many days now. I live in a remote area and there is no vet doctor nearby. I have to make someone to get it.

Not eating is a sign of illness, not a sign of worm infection. Your dog needs to be seen by a veterinary doctor, as he likely has a severe disease. There are many pet doctors in Ambala, so you just need to put "veterinarians near 133001 India" into your browser. It will give you many vets in and around Ambala, Haryana. Please take Pluto to one of those doctors where he can get a correct diagnosis and treatment. A wormer will not cure him.
