I've been through worms with both of my dogs. I panicked like you did at first but I've kinda gotten used to it! It's no big deal. Just have them dewormed and make sure you wash your hands after handling their poop. And don't worry, as long as you take the proper precautions (like washing your hands), you shouldn't have anything to worry about. They won't get on your furniture or on you or anything like that. |
Thats what I had thought at first, that they were something else. But after she went potty again and I saw more moving around they look like tapeworm.
I don't know what it is with her. I've never had to deal with it with Duke, but she's gotten them twice now.
