Hi Alvin!!! Puppies should start given heart-worm when they are 5-6month old. Usually vet will advise to test for heart-worm first. In my opinion, It does not necessary need to test for heart-worm before given them, Cos usually chances puppies getting heart-worm at 5-6month are low. I give my Silky monthly heart-worm on the 15th of the month. Some people recommend once a month / three month once for deworming. For me, I give my Silky three month once. I give my Silky deworming schedule are 1st of Mac, Jun, Sept, & Dec. It is easy to remember. Follow the correct dosage reccomended for your puppies according to their weight. Usually 1 tablet are for 10kg weight. E.G. If your puppies are 5kg then you only give 1/2 the tablet. Lastly, remember the annual booster injection. I set the date at 1st of January every year for the injection. So, it easy for you to keep track on the monthly heart-worm, three month once deworm & yearly booster injection loh. But, it's up to you to set the date that you think is easy to remember. Hope that help!!! Regards, Christopher
