I have puppies, based on my research I have noticed that people regard a worm under tongue dangerous, apparently they say it can kill a puppy. Thus i am planning to purchase epol or pedegree dog food, so I wonder if it can get rid of that worm. Please suggest eligable nutrition or method to keep them healthy.

    Your dog needs to see a Veterinarian.  I think Pedigree dog food is crap.

    Dogs have a worm life.

    Food will not get rid of wormS.  All puppies have wormS & have to be dewormed.  They are born with wormS & when you deworm the pups you need to deworm the mama too.

    You can go to PetSmart or other large pet store & choose a good brand of dog food.  Pedigree is not too bad but you should make sure it is for puppies.  No adult food for the puppies.  There are much better dog foods available but it can get quite expensive buying the best there is.  Pedigree has  grains as fillers & some dogs are allergic to the grains, usually the wheat.  Check the ingredients & see if it has corn first on the list.  That means there is more corn than anything else.  That is way it is not expensive.

    Worms are you usually seen being excreted in feces, not appearing under the tongue, unless they are being thrown back up = from stomach or intestines.  See your vet and get an appropriate wormer for the age & weight of your puppies.  No dog food kibble - such as Pedigree contains a wormer.
