[QUOTE=Danny1909;4198596]Today jax got his first set of shots & dewormer shot, vet said he had worms.. He just pooped and there were approximately 6 worms that were long and look to be roundworms. Anyway vet did give me medicine for both my puppies called trifexis, I just gave them the pill and hopefully it eliminates them.[/QUOTE]
The Vet did explain to you that Trifexis is a Heart Worm pill that is given monthly and that it prevents heart worm, and other intestinal worms and takes care of flea's.

Since he was given a wormer at the Vet today, I would have held off on giving him the Trifexis, but since you gave it, please keep real close eye for signs of a possible reaction to having the two med's and Vac's at the same time. This is an awful lot for a small system to handle at once.
