Tapeworms
Tapeworms are one of the most common internal parasites pet owners can actually see. They are repugnant and absorb vital nutrients that your dog needs. Dogs get tapeworms by ingesting infected fleas or by eating infected rabbits or small rodents. Tapeworms are seen in dogs of all ages.
Signs of Tapeworm Infection:
- Visible segments on feces or haircoat (appear as small white worms that may look like grains of rice or seeds)
- Scooting (dog rubs bottom along floor)
