Worms??

Hi I have a 19 week old rottie x belgian shepherd and he was wormed by the vet a week ago and has been every month since we had him. He has been dragging his bum on the floor after going for a poo cant see any worms in his poo at all.

Wondered if this was worms or something he has eaten because I have noticed he has been chewing on stones in the garden recentely.

Any help will be appreciated
many thanks

This can also be problems with the anal glands - I`d get these checked. If it is anal gland problems you can help it not to re-occur by feeding roughage.

I would try and stop the stone chewing too, if they are swallowed it can be dangerous and also I have seen a few dogs who lost teeth to stone chewing

Interesting mix - looking forward to fotos
