is there any other way to get rid of tapeworms besides the pills from the vet?
(such as a med i can get at a feed store or something?)

You really need to take your pup to the vet to get this taken cared of.

I wouldn't due to the simple fact once the dog becomes heavily infested, it is very hard to get rid of them.
You will be doing the dog a favor as well, so he gets the right med, with the right dosage:)

I would take your dog to the vet, but if you aren't they sell all sorts of de-wormer at pet stores (like petco, petsmart, D&B, and I think zamzows)
hope this helped!

I don't think meds for tapeworm are sold over the counter. You could just call your vet, they may just fill a prescription for you without taking your dog in.
