IndyMama77 Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 A recent fecal test showed our grey is still loaded with hooks, despite repeated attempts to rid him of these nasty things. We are currently doing the Drontal Tabs/Advantage Multi double whammy. My concern is that the poor dog seems miserable...pacing, whining, biting at himself and panting. I feel badly for him, but I know we have to get thru it. Anyone else's dog experience this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoomdoggie Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Yes, we just finished a second round of Panacur, and our grey is still scratching and biting himself. I'm assuming another fecal test will come up positive for hooks, so I just want to forget this test and start another round of worming. I'm just not sure if we should continue with Panacur. Our vet said they stopped carrying Drontal because of a huge price increase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoomdoggie Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 just finished 3 treatments of drontal and have started Panacur this week... poor little ones. I've heard that Dontral works better than Panacur, or is this not always the case? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndyMama77 Posted May 28, 2017 Author Share Posted May 28, 2017 I heard the Drontal works better as well, the Panacur didn't rid my dog of them anyway. The Drontal was super expensive though, I think $24 for 1 tablet, and at his weight he required 1.5 tablets just for one dose, which we will repeat in 2 weeks!

Time4ANap Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Drontal Plus while expensive, has always been the "big guns" when you need them. It was well worth the price the time we needed it.

peglywegly Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Hello GT friends, Here we go again. This foster has been in my care since May 15, 2017. He has been through the 3days on panacur then in 14 days treat 3days again. four times. he had his follow up fecal last friday and it returned positive for hooks again. i want to treat him 5 days in a row with the panacur, 14 days apart. he has so improved since in my care, his fur is shiny and filled in and his bones are less prominent. OUR group has had lots of issues getting the hooks to clear quite a few dogs, however they continue to prescribe the panacur 3 days not 5 days. would there be any harm to the dog to try the five day treatment? i will consider any feedback helpful. thanks Coconuts foster Mom Quote Peggy - Pete (Wild Pan Thief), Remy (Exotic Ziricote) Buddy the Golden 11-26-04 to 9-18-15, the KATZ - Ozzy, Freckles, Jake and Elwood Hubba, Desert Tortoises Tortilita, and Athena. and when I figure out how to make a PET collage they will all be included in this signature. I included my 2 most recent fosters. Marie a sweet darling of a girl. And Willie, a dog I want to keep. He is a loveable mushy boy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShebasMom Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 I think I used to get Drontal from either www.petsuppliesnet.com or bestvaluepetsupplies.biz at about $72 or $75 for a 6-pack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
