Teddy didn't have any problems gaining weight with Tapeworm, but I think he's just bigger in general. Why does a pup need to be 2lbs to get the medicine? I'm assuming because they throw up, which is bad for a dog under 2lbs? It's a pretty strong dose I think. Teddy vomited and had diareah the same day and he's never had diareah ...
