| Roundworms My 12 week old yorkie is only 1 pound and her tummy was rumbling very loud and very frequently this morning. I ended up taking her to the vet and he said she has roundworms. He prescribed Panacur. I have 2 problems. First of all, she will not eat the Panacur paste. I tried everything - in her food, on a piece of cheese, etc. Secondly, she won't even touch her puppy food. Can I give her any human food? Can I feed her egg? Please help! (I have given her Nurtical in the meantime to avoid any glucose level issues, but she can't just have that!) |

| Roll it inside of some chop meat. It'll stick to the meat, and when she eats it she'll get the medicine. It works for me. If it's a pill you can just hold her mouth open stick it way back in her throat, and keep her mouth closed till she swallows it. It sounds cruel, but if that's the only way to get the medicine down you need to do it, and it won't hurt her.
