Too much toxin to run through tiny puppies to suit me and all the vets I have ever dealt with...I start with parasite free bitches and work from there..
Pups get a stool check at 6 weeks..no parasites, no treatment..8 wk and 12 week stool check...no parasites, no treatment.
KNOCK on wood I have not had a positive stool in over 20 yrs...

As to vaccines...most vets today are not accepting a breeder giving vaccines..so they disregard breeders record and start shots all over again...so many pups are being over vaccinated because of this factor.
I advise the breeder giving the 8 week and then the vet giving the 12 shot and a health check...if you are selling at the 12 wk advised aged. I keep mine until all shots, including rabies is given...JMO
