De-worming the puppies

The first picture is fun. We have started softening puppy chow and spreading it out in the bottom of a broiler pan. Sometimes we add a milk supplement.  The puppies attack it like they are starving.   They are about 4 times larger than they were at birth.  They are growing by leaps and bounds. But how much larger would they be if they weren't feeding worms?

Warning if you have a weak stomach DO NOT look past the first picture. We gave the puppies a de-worming medicine today. When we did this with Duchess puppies, there was a maggot looking thing in the poop. I  was shocked to see 3 to 6 inch worms in the puppy poop. I can't imagine how much faster they are going to start growing.
