Product Description
Safe-Guard 4 Canine Dewormer is for the treatment and control of tapeworms, roundworms, hookworms and whipworms. Consult your veterinarian for help in the diagnosis, treatment and control of parasitism. Specific diagnoses require laboratory testing. Dogs can become infected with several different kinds of tapeworms. Safe-Guard 4 Canine only kills Taenia species of tapeworms. Roundworms and hookworms may pose serious human health risks; regular deworming may help reduce those risks. Safe-Guard 4 Canine is safe for use in puppies 6 weeks or older and adult dogs, including pregnant dogs. Do not deworm a dog or puppy that is sick. Consult your veterinarian for a diagnosis of the illness. The daily dose for Safe-Guard 4 Canine is 50 mg/kg (22.7 mg/lb) of body weight. You should weigh your dog to make sure you are using the right dose. Your dog must be treated with the following dose for 3 days in a row. See label for dosage.

- Reviewed in the United States on August 20, 2017Safe-Guard CURED OUR RESCUES OF GIARDIA ON SECOND DAY OF TREATMENT. A miracle drug. VERY pleased. No more diarrhea in the house!! No more offensive odors. No more suffering cats. READ GIARDIA SYMPTOMS BELOW:
Giardia Symptoms in the Cat:
Offensive-odor diarrhea, sometimes with a greenish-hue. The cats may be fecal semi-incontinent, leaving spots of diarrhea throughout the house, or on way to/from the litter box. The major symptom is the odor - you'll notice when your cats "go", that the bad odor permeates the entire indoors
Symptom Not Mentioned on Vet, Pet websites: "Squinty-eyes"- the third eyelid/membrane will be visible in corner of the cats' eyes, the eye will not be round, shining bright as per usual, giving them a tired, almost drunken look. This symptom is a dead giveaway with Giardia in felines- take note!
Appetite in the cats will be good, but weight will slowly drop off.
Short-coated cats will have a remarkably shiny, almost greasy-looking coat.
Grogginess: Cats will sleep more than usual. Upon artificially waking by the owner, cats may not be steady on their feet, may stumble or even fall, without quickly arighting itself as a non-ill cat would. When picking up a sleeping cat, they are limp, and not easy to get "purchase" of on account of the limp limbs, sagging body.
These symptoms I have just typed here, I have not found even in scholarly articles concerning Giardia in cats and the symptoms I am telling you about were the most noticeable I saw in the cats.
Fenbendazole is not approved (YET!) for use in cats, hence it's off-label use- it is often used by vets for cats. I am SO thrilled we can buy this online- it is just wonderful.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2016I was a bit worried that the powder option wouldn't work for my pup. I thought he would smell it or taste it and refuse to eat it on his food. I was also concerned that I would have a MESS (you know what I mean if you make sure to worm your dog) for the 3 day treatment. I was wrong on every level.
I simply placed my pup's food in his bowl as usual, emptied the powder for that day on top, added a little water and mixed it up. He did fine with it! I'm not sure how this would go if you free feed your dog instead of having scheduled feeding times. I would say maybe for the 3 day treatment take the food up and schedule feed for those 3 days to be sure they get their entire dose. I gave it to my boy first thing every morning in case it made him sick. I didn't want to be up all night cleaning messes.
This DID NOT make him sick in any way. This was the easiest multi-wormer I have ever used. He didn't act like he didn't feel well or like he didn't have much energy. It was business as usual! This was a preventative treatment for us. I have a friend whose dog had tapeworms that my pup had recently played with so I was worried he may have gotten them. I did check his poop to be sure nothing was there. He was clean... no worms or evidence of worms.
I will use this product again for all of my dogs. Make sure you do check your dog's weight before you purchase so you get the right amount for dosage. I highly recommend this product!

- Reviewed in the United States on December 26, 2020So we got this product and we were really helpful that it would be a good product. Everybody seem to be really happy with it and it had a lot of really good reviews. To be fair I think that it worked okay I think it did kill some parasites but I do not think they did actually finish them off like it should have and we actually ended up having to buy more deworming medication so I would put this up here in the kind of good medications. My dog liked it didn't have any problem taking it and I was able to mix it in really well it didn't seem to make her sick. It did seem to actually kill some parasites they did come out more prevalently afterwards and we already treated her once for worms with another medication so it did go in behind that medication and take out more parasites. The sad thing is is we still had to give her another worming medication and it's didn't really seem to do anything so we may have to try this medication again so it's not a terrible one and I think it's worth a try. Our dog did have a lot of parasites I believe the people we got her from did not take care of her and she was just overrun with parasites. Not only did she have tapeworms but she also had hookworms and possibly some other types of parasites. We're even thinking she could have a urinary parasite that we're not going to be able to treat ourselves. If you have a small worm problem like you're just wanting to keep maintenance and your animal seems relatively healthy I would say this is probably a pretty good maintenance wormer. It's probably not going to get them all if your dog is overweight with parasites you're going to want to at least it do two rounds of it. It's very affordable though that's the good news so doing another round isn't that big a deal.
