| Update on my baby. He is actually eating very well. The Science diet dog food the vet gave us he his eating that well. I am having a slight panic attack because I discovered worms today! I was told it was because of the dewormer but that doesn't make sense. That was Tuesday. Hasn't it been to long? Should I be worried or just wait until his next round of dewormer? |

| Do you know what kind of worms? If it is small short white things that look like a grain of rice either on their poop or on his bed (dried), it could be tape worms, which they get from eating a flea. You said he was infested with fleas, and I think I warned about that earlier. The dewormer does not get rid of those, you need to get the pill from a vet (don't use over the counter meds). It's cheap and easy, so call the vet and tell them what you are seeing and he may give you the pill without even bringing him in. At least my vet does. As far as any other type of worm, call the vet and ask if those would be coming out several days after the dewormer.

| They are a little creepy, but are common with fleas, and so easy to get rid of.
