<p>Ann......I know someone who's vet does this....Her dog had very itchy skin and I told her it was probably caused by a overload of chemicals in the poor dog's system. She informed me that the vet had also given her something for the dog to treat the itch!!</p>

After just one examination and an xray my worse fears were true....yes she had a tumour on her liver and it was advanced....I thought how much longer would the vet have taken my money.

<p>I notice in local paper small ads 'puppies for sale' that they are offered as 'flead and wormed' and I think either the breeders must have infestations of fleas and worms or that buyers demand this - perhaps having bought poorly reared puppies in the past?</p>

<p>Yes, I use raw garlic. Also use Drontal. And the last couple of years I've been giving two doses of Ivermectin to pregnant bitches, with another dose after they whelp, to prevent worms in puppies. Its very effective, the puppies are worm free.</p>

<p>Would that be raw garlic Margaret? I have always been told that for garlic to be effective it must be raw. Odourless pills are useless. I now worm conventionally and also use Drontal for both puppies and adult dogs. I have never had any problems with it either.</p>

<p>Juliette recommends garlic for worms. I walk with an English Setter who has raw garlic in his dinner every day. He has always been worm free and ticks don't seem to attach thenselves to him either. I was a big fan of Juliette de Bairacli-Levy when I first started showing dogs, I certainly followed her worming regime years ago and found it very good. It was very much a totall way of life.....if you wanted to persue a nomadic existence!</p>
