Wink Hookworm med.

Hi,
The Medicine called Nemex2 is the recommended thing for hookworm. It is Yellow liquid. It must be given a second time within 14 days before the eggs hatch out or they will produce more.
Hookworm can be caught from the soil if you go barefoot thru fecus material in the soil or if you ingest it on a toy etc. That is the only way you can get it. Hard to believe a vet tech would say go to another vet. This was unethical of him to do so.
I am a long time breeder of yorkies and vet tech. and groomer. Since 1967. Hope this helps you. Don't worry so much. Yorkies will throw up periodically if they eat too much or something new or drink to much water. They are little hogs.

LOve to all,
Gloryblu
