I for one, feel that injecting a puppy with chemicals IF NOT needed is just asking for trouble, would you give a new born baby Tylenol if their were no symptoms?
Oh I agree dont use the chemicals if you dont need them but if the pup does have worms or fleas for example I dont see any harm in using products the vet deems safe. My vet was just really helpful to me when I had kittens and they had fleas and I didnt know what to do to get rid of them. I dont agree that all pups have worms as I know first hand with kittens they are all not born with worms. JeanieK pups can get worms from the mom, from injesting a flea and from the soil
