Panacur is the only wormer to kill whip worms.Is this in your dog?Goats dont get whipworms.
Hi, thanks for your reply. hmmmm
We had to put a goat down last week and had an autopsy done with the Ministry of Agriculture. The goat had a genetic heart defect but also had a number of worms. The one that the report mentioned is TRICHURIS, which requires a whip worm deworming agent (this is what the guy said). I assumed, without knowing much about worms, that trichuris and whip worm were one and the same.... perhaps, then, the trichuris requires a whip worm deworming agent???? Does this make sense?
My next question, then, would be...... we only have one remaining goat now. Should we treat her with Panacur, like with tapeworms, at 4x horse dose for 3 days in a row???
Is this all we should treat her with at this time - or do we do Panacur in combination with another dewormer?
jodi
p.s. can dogs get worms from the goats?
