♥Tiny Tia my Furbaby♥ Donating Member | How often do you deworm? My vet said Tia should be dewormed once a month. How often do you do your baby/s?

| Ellie gets Interceptor monthly which does control intestinal parasites but I just use it for the heartworm prevention. I wouldn't use an intestinal dewormer at all otherwise. I do it when there is concern and the vet thinks it needs to be done (almost never). We do fecals 1 or 2 times a year to make sure things are clear.

| If you are talking about heartworms, yes once a month. If it is just an intestinal dewormer alone, once a month is not the norm in the US at least.
