Fecal Exam: What is it for?
A fecal exam is used to determine if your puppy or dog has any internal parasites such as whipworms,
roundworms, tapeworms, hookworms and coccidia. A routine de-wormer such as Pyrantal is given regardless of
positive or
negative result
of fecal exam. If tapeworms or coccidia are present, other medications may be
administered
and dispensed according to results and severity of infestation. Heartworm prevention, which is determined
by the puppy or dog's weight and administered as a pill, chewable tablet or injection, is started at the six weeks of age visit.
It is given once monthly for the length of the dog's life. (source: Continental Kennel Club)
