roundworm

I recently took my pup to the vet and found out she has roundworm. Due to VERY unexpected car repair costs, she unfortunately had to be put on the back burner until next pay. Today I was cleaning up the yard and noticed worms in her poop. The vet said when she starts taking her med, don't be alarmed if there's worms in the poop, it's just her body getting rid of them. So can her body naturally be getting rid of these worms without the med or did the worms have babies or something and is now affecting my puppies health even more?

I would hope worming would not be that expensive? I hope your pet is OK now.

Ok thank-you. That's kind of what I was afraid of

If your puppy is passing worms in her stool or if she is vomiting and there are worms in the vomit it just means that she has a severe infestation and needs to be wormed as quickly as possible.
