I have heard vets say.."All puppies have worms"..this is just not true. If I had all my vet records for 36 yrs I could prove I have never any pups come up positive for regular worms. They have had tapes, but not in about 15 yrs.
I never worm a dog/pup without a stool check..why run a toxin through the system if there is nothing to kill..

When I give advise I try my best not to tell anyone to do anything that can cause harm..even if it is remote...worming a pup at 2 to 3 days is dangerous IMO. I had a stud client allow the vet to worm her litter at 10 says...pups were all dead by evening. Vet said he was surprised, never happened with other breeds.

k Owensk9..this is JMO, but I think it best we tell this breeder to get a stoool check and go from there...
