I am new to this puppy forum. I have a 6 week old Shih tzu/Poodle. He is scooting a lot. I figured he must have worms so for 2 days I gave him Hartz Health measures Liquid Wormer(I think its over-the-counter). My question is, has anyone tried this and does it work? He is still scooting. It is only the 2nd day of him using it. Will they go away?(If it is worms that he has). He seems constipated too. Maybe he's tryin to push the worms out. Also he tries to eat his poop. How do i stop that? Thanks very much, owner of Snoopy, the Shi-T-Poo! My dear dog lover. This is not the correct way a dog ppl should do as you did. You cannot just figure out that the dog have worms or this or that. For your information SCOOTING is not actually the sign of worms, actually it is trying to empty his/her anal sac. If you happen to see your dog scooting and each and everytime you deworm him/her you are killing her/him. If you suspect your dog have worm send his/her stool to the vet and the vet will tell you whether your dog is infested with worms or not. If your are prescribing over the counter make sure you go accordingly to your dog's weigh and indication label but don't just simply dianose.
