You're heading in a good direction, Peter. I appreciate your efforts on behalf of your charge.
And while the pumpkin seeds won't hurt (and add some nice zinc and protein and fiber) they are known for working in the gut, not the heart.
To tell you the truth, I just never worry about intestinal parasites in animals raised like yours. The health and vitality achieved allows parasites no quarter. Even pups who bring some into their early life from mom -- the worms disappear within a couple weeks of being on a raw, balanced diet in my experience.
Carry on. You're solidly on the Natural Path! No fear!

Hello Peter,
The best natural dewormer, which is also great for humans, is Diatomaceous Earth [DE]
Here’s a few links of info you can take a look at:

And I wouldn't waste good $$$$ on titers... one-time shots are good for life immunity.
If you do insist on titers, remember that the cost to the vet is now $10-$20 / test with in-house VacciCheck with accurate results ready in 21 minutes http://vaccicheck.com/
Several FB friends have told me that their vet has tried to severely rip them off, saying titers would cost $350 / test!
