Why you need to worm your dog before vaccination: reasons, anthelmintics, treatment rules

The role of deworming

Any important event in the life of a pet dog requires proper preparation from the owners. In the case of vaccination, you need to prepare the pet itself. This manipulation should be preceded by anthelmintic. This procedure is mandatory if a rabies vaccination is required.

Many dog owners are perplexed as to why they should remove worms from an animal that does not outwardly show any signs of the presence of these parasites in the body. But worming should be performed, since the presence of these pests in the dog’s body can lead to unpleasant consequences.

Helminths are parasitic worms that live in the internal organs or intestines of animals. They feed on useful substances that the body sends to a specific organ or system. Therefore, their presence in a dog leads to gradual exhaustion of the pet.

Do not forget that worms parasitizing the intestines and internal organs disrupt their functioning, which can lead to the development of serious pathologies. Helminths also have a suppressive effect on the immune system, and good immunity is important when carrying out various types of vaccinations.

In addition, parasitic worms can provoke allergic reactions in animals. As a result, the dog will experience much more stress from the vaccination. Do not forget that some types of parasites are dangerous to humans. Therefore, with the help of anthelmintic, the owners protect themselves.

That is why it is necessary to worm your dog against such parasites if you want your pet to tolerate the vaccination well. By carrying out this procedure correctly, the owner eliminates any burden on the dog’s immunity, thereby minimizing the risk of complications after vaccination.

Preparing for puppy vaccination and possible complications

The vaccination preparation plan should look like this:

Carry out deworming
It is not recommended to give food in the morning before vaccination, but you can drink unlimited amounts of water.
In cases where the vaccination is given after lunch, you need to give the puppy light food 3-4 hours before vaccination, this will prevent possible weakness and apathy.

In some breeds, in a small percentage of cases, changes occur in the body, such as swelling or the appearance of a lump at the injection site; it is treated only if it becomes further enlarged and painful. Mostly resolves on its own within 1-3 weeks. To observe the possible appearance of symptoms, it is enough to observe your pet for a day; in cases where the symptoms continue for more than 24 hours, you should consult a doctor.

In the following days:

Increased body temperature
Loss of appetite
Occasional vomiting or diarrhea
General lethargy

When to seek professional help:

Diarrhea doesn't stop
Gagging reflexes continue
State of shock
Lack of appetite and refusal to eat for more than 24 hours
Discharge of all kinds of fluids from the mouth, eyes, nose

After a couple of days, a general examination by a veterinarian is recommended to identify pathologies that are not visually visible.

Anthelmintics

To carry out a successful procedure, you need to know how to worm your dog before vaccination. Today there is a huge number of a wide variety of means designed to destroy parasitic worms. However, they all fall into three main categories:

suspensions. Such preparations are suitable for treating the smallest puppies. They can be used at two weeks of age and older. Suspensions are weaker than tablets. But they are quite suitable for preventive use. The most commonly used anti-worm suspensions are Helmintal, Drontal Junior and Dirofen;
pills. They are suitable for treating adult animals. How many tablets to give your dog can be determined by the instructions. The calculation is based on the pet's weight. To ensure that your pet accurately eats the required dose, the tablets are placed inside the treat. The most popular anti-helminthic tablets are “Kaniquantel Plus”, “Dironet”, “Pirantel” and “Febtal Combo”;
drops on the withers. This product appeared relatively recently, so it is still considered a novelty. Drops from a good manufacturer have a universal effect. They help get rid of many parasites, including subcutaneous and skin mites, as well as parasitic worms. When applied to the withers, the drug penetrates the bloodstream through the pores and spreads throughout the animal’s body, destroying parasites. The best drops against helminths are “Dana” and “Advocate”.

Each dog breeder decides which product to choose for himself, based on the specifics of using a particular drug. The right type of drug can be selected by the veterinarian who will administer the vaccination. You can also choose an anthelmintic yourself, choosing it based on the pet’s age and ease of use.

What you need to know about the timing and preparations for vaccinating dogs

What is deworming

Deworming is a set of special actions that are aimed at ridding a dog of helminths and their eggs. Infection with parasites can occur in the following cases:

when eating raw meat, especially pork;
during communication with infected animals;
during walks, when the pet sniffs the feces of other animals.

How to carry out the procedure

Selected anthelmintics for dogs should be used before vaccination. This procedure is performed in several stages. The first one is considered the most important. To carry out such a manipulation, you will need saline solution, “Gamavit” or its equivalent, an absorbent. With these drugs, you can go to the veterinarian or do all the necessary steps yourself. If you have everything at hand, then it is quite possible to worm your pet with your own hands.

Before giving the medicine, the dog is injected with Gamavit (an immunostimulant). If the adult dog’s pupils then dilate, drool and his gait becomes unsteady, then any absorbent should be given (for example, Enterosgel or activated carbon). For weakened animals and puppies, the absorbent must be given after about 1–1.5 hours. After 6-8 hours, the pet must empty its intestines. If this does not happen, then a laxative is administered (for example, Duphalac or Vaseline mineral oil).

The antihelminthic agent is given on an empty stomach in the morning (even if the instructions indicate that use is free of charge). The dose is calculated according to the instructions (based on the weight of the pet).

Remember that if the dog spits out or even snatches the tablet, the medicine will not be given a second time. The “etching” can be repeated only after 10–14 weeks.

Worming should be done twice, since one manipulation does not always get rid of parasites. The fact is that it is possible to destroy mainly only adult individuals at a time.

Should the puppy be wormed before the second vaccination or before the first?

We are often asked the question: should a puppy be wormed before the second vaccination or before the first? Let's figure it out - worms are not so rare in dogs, their impact is so extensive that they spread throughout the body through the blood vessels, settling on literally every organ, creating disturbances in the functioning of the organs. This happens through inflammation, micro-tears, splitting of mucous membranes, and also possible intestinal blockage and malfunction of the dog’s nervous system.

In addition, worms tend to feed on the blood and food of their carrier that enters the stomach . From here we can conclude that pathogenic processes occur, which have their own degree of development and complications, leading to general disorders that can lead to other pathologies, since other harmful bacteria from outside begin to penetrate the body. What to do to avoid such consequences?

Answering the question: is it necessary to give a puppy a dewormer? The answer is "Yes". Let's analyze a situation where, having ignored or not knowing, the antihelminthic medicine was not given to the dog and the first vaccination was given.

Vaccination against parvovirus enteritis, viral hepatitis and canine distemper is done primarily and may not work, since the medicine will be consumed in whole or in part by the worms present in the body. This will cause the graft to work incorrectly or incompletely.

How long does it take to use anthelmintics?

It is imperative to worm the puppy, and then wait 3 months. This is done because vaccination against worms is toxic to the puppy’s body and can cause harm to health through poisoning.

What to do if this medicine for worms was given twice a month? It is imperative to closely monitor your pet, recording any abnormalities or symptoms of poisoning. It is advisable to show the dog to a specialist for consultation, since the body functions differently - some are stronger, some are weaker, so the veterinarian will decide to take any measures if processes that have arisen due to a drug overdose are identified.

Before the second vaccination, tests are taken and repeated prophylaxis with deworming drugs is performed. Provided that more than 2.5 - 3 months have passed since the delivery of the first worm vaccine. If the medicine has not expired, it should not be given again.

When to vaccinate

Many dog owners are interested in how many days before vaccination they need to worm their dog. Most often, vaccination is performed approximately 2-3 weeks after successful deworming. Doing it earlier is not recommended.

Now you know how to worm a dog before vaccination. This is a very important manipulation, so it must be carried out according to all the rules.

When and how should deworming be carried out before vaccination?

Experts recommend giving dogs various deworming tablets: they can be in the form of drops, gels, suspensions, tablets. Among them are Pyrantel, Albendazole, Praziquantel and others. Experts still prefer more modern means (Drontal, Milbemax). They are all quite effective, containing 2-3 active substances. The choice of deworming remedy belongs only to you. However, it can never hurt to consult a veterinarian before vaccinating your puppy.

Important! The dog must be dewormed two weeks before vaccination. It is prohibited to carry out deworming and vaccination at the same time!

How to worm a puppy if this is his first vaccination? A drug administration scheme has been developed according to the physiology of the worms. Liberation from helminths is carried out twice with a break of several weeks, then after another 14 days the vaccine can be administered. Thus, all these manipulations can take up to 1.5 months before vaccination. However, it is worth it: your pet will be healthy in the future.

During revaccinations, deworming is also carried out 2 weeks in advance. If the dog is infected and there are clear signs of the presence of helminths (worms in the feces), the dog must be dewormed three times at intervals of 7-14 days.

Important! The fight against helminthic infestation should be carried out a week after flea treatment.

Rules for worming:

the drug is given to the pet in the morning on an empty stomach, feeding is allowed no earlier than 30 minutes after giving the drug for worms;
the dosage of the medicine is calculated based on the weight of the dog;
before deworming, a course of immunostimulation of the animal is recommended;
it is necessary to ensure a sufficient amount of water and free access to it;
bowel movement should occur within 6 hours after taking the drug; in the absence of stool, a laxative should be given;
Monitor the dog’s condition throughout the day;
7-14 days after the fight against helminths, start vaccination.

For reference. It is convenient to give medications in liquid form in a disposable syringe (without a needle!), strictly adhering to the doses. You should do the same with tablet drugs, first crushing them and mixing them with a small amount of liquid. Adult dogs are allowed to administer whole tablets, while dipping them in sunflower oil (so that they do not get stuck in the throat and the puppy then “spits them out”).

Rules for treating dogs for worms

The maximum effect from the supply of anthelmintic drugs can be obtained by observing the following rules:

Under no circumstances should animals be vaccinated when they are sick, weakened or exhausted. In these cases, it is advisable to temporarily postpone the treatment against worms. If it is still necessary, you need to use the most “mild” drugs.

It is advisable to give the medicine in the morning, with a minimum amount of food, or three hours after feeding. In this case, the worms will receive the maximum dose and are guaranteed to die.

Strictly follow the manufacturer's recommended doses! Even if there are, for example, two large tablets per dog, they must be given immediately and in one go. Dividing anthelmintic drugs into two or three times is categorically unacceptable.

If the dog is “picky” and manages to spit out the medicine, it must be given again. In this case, you can wait a couple of hours to see if your pet has any reactions to the drug.
