Home Remedies for Deworming

• Garlic is an old and natural remedy for many health problems and is known for its medicinal properties. Garlic is fed to dogs for both expelling whipworm and boosting the immune system. It is also known as an anti-bacterial and can be combined with fennel for whipworm deworming. Fennel also has immune boosting properties.
  
  Ground pumpkin seeds can be added to a dog's food in order to get rid of many parasites including tapeworms and whipworm. Add a tablespoon of ground pumpkin seeds daily for deworming, until a whipworm test is confirmed as negative.

Consideration

• Consult your dog's veterinarian before attempting to deworm at home. Not every dog is healthy enough for home remedies. Repeat fecal test may be required to confirm that a dog has been successfully rid of whipworm. Prevent parasites from affecting your dog by administering a monthly dose of preventive medication.
