If it is flat and white sounds like tapeworms. They are actually long flat white segments joined together, but can break apart and each segment can come apart - thus looking like rice. Tapeworms are the effects of a dog eatting a flea and can also be caused when eatting anothers dog feces which has tapeworms. I will try to look for a link that shows a picture for you. It is very simple to treat - one pill now and another in 2 weeks. I forget the name of the pill right now. I use to be a vet tech. I would highly recoomend going to the vet if it is tapeworms to get a diagnosis and treatment. Do not count on the pills offered at pet shops.
