I've done a quick search, but not had much joy, so thought I'd ask.  I've just started using Advocate (because of the area we live in, although I still have reservations).  But a friend at work was asking if there were any other non-oral worming treatments available.  He's got a fairly old Jack Russell who hates taken oral treatments apparently!  Are there any?

Sorry I don't know of any non oral treatment, I'm sure someone on here will be able to tell you. However, my vet supplies me with beef flavoured worm tablets, but sorry it has been a while since I gave my dog one so I forget the name of it, but maybe your friend could ask your vet if they carry a flavoured tablet in stock. Providing your friends dog likes flavoured tabs/treats. Duke just happily crunches it down, in fact he would happily devour a bowl full

You could try Panacur liquid, or paste, easy to squirt down the throat than giving a tablet.

As well as liquid and paste wormers Panacur also do granules which can be sprinkled on food - I can't recall if any of the spot on type treatments also act as wormers but personally I wouldn't use a topical treatment for an internal problem.
HTH, Teri

Don't know of a none oral, but the 4 seasons natural wormer is easy to administer it is liquid and comes with a syringe type top - I think it tastes 'evil' because as soon as my dogs see the bottle they run away from me :)  but it is effective,

If your friends dog is an older dog I would definitley say to use this as it is far more gentle than the wormers from the vets - and it does work.  I have a 5 year old and a 4 year old and they have always been worm free!

Advocate covers worms but doesn't do tape worm.

Thanks all - I'll print this off to give to him.  I think he said they'd tried different flavoured ones, but something like granules might be worth a try.

Has he tried wrapping the tablet in something more palatable?
Mine take their's wrapped in slices of ham and they have three drontal tablets each.
So three slices of ham, one tablet in each slice for each dog...and they are pretty fast at wolfing them down.
Although maybe because of them competing against each other it doesn't seem to touch the sides
eached tablet laced slice that is given gone in seconds..

I do have one dog that has dietry intolerances and she isn't allowed 'normal' oral wormers.
She has the spot on mentioned above and then has to have droncit injection for the tape worm.
Will say that the injection isn't pleasant for the dog, my vet gave it in the neck and my dog did have a reaction
and had a swelling like an egg and it was painful for her. It took a while for the swelling to disappate.

If the JR's tummy can take it give the wormer in a food that he normally finds really tasty.
