I don't vaccinate mine until they are 11 or 12 weeks old. Some people start at 9 weeks. I have never hear of a protocol for worming. Did your puppies check positive for worms? If you dog does not have worms then you should not worm it. None of my puppies have tested positive for worms in years so I don't worm them. I have a stool sample checked by the vet sometimes to be sure. I do treat mine with Albon only if they start having loose stools.
