Help your clients keep up your good work!
You go to great lengths to provide your breeding dogs and puppies with an environment that is safe and healthy.
But what about when they leave you to go to their new home?
- What your clients don’t know can hurt their puppy – and their family.
- They don’t understand the worms’ life cycle, or how infections are transmitted.
- They don’t realize that some of these common dog parasites can also infect humans (what is known as “zoonosis”).
- They don’t know about deworming dogs and how to control and prevent intestinal worm infections.

- Easy to administer at home.

Provide your clients with information concerning any vaccination and/or canine deworming programs you may have initiated, and encourage them to follow up with their own veterinarian.
Recommend to your clients that they start their puppy on a regular deworming program, using an age-appropriate broad-spectrum dewormer:

One product that meets those requirements is Safe-Guard® (fenbendazole) Canine Dewormer. As an added convenience, it is available without a prescription at many retail outlets, as well as online.
