Do not deworm dogs during menstruation

Dogs are at a more vulnerable stage during menstruation. If deworming is performed on dogs, some dogs may not be able to accept it and may have negative effects on the dog’s body. It will cause harm, so it is recommended not to perform deworming work either internally or externally during menstruation.

Dog Menstrual Cycle

Every female dog will have its period around 6 months old, because it is at this time that the puppy will start to go into heat, which is a normal phenomenon. Generally, female puppies will menstruate once or twice a year, and each period takes one to two weeks. The best mating time is from the day after menstruation to the 11th day, which mainly occurs in winter and spring.
