Yes you can.
Avoid intimate contact with the animal ie., don't let the puppy kiss and lick you.
Assuming the puppy has been dewormed for a second time, a good perventive that there will be no 3rd occurance is to alway's clean up the doggie do,do!! When on walks with your puppy never let puppy sniff or eat other animals do,do!!
Alway's provide clean bedding and a clean environment for you puppy.
** MAKE SURE YOU THROUGHLY WASH YOUR HANDS AND SCRUB UNDER YOUR NAILS AFTER HANDLING YOUR PUPPY **
No. Tapeworms only exist in pets. They cannot be transferred from a pet to a person. :) check out this site I had the same question http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/44005/pet_diseases_that_transfer_to_people.html just a sample from the page Because of immunizations and things like litter boxes and flea treatments, the transfer of pet diseases to humans has greatly been reduced over the years, but there are still some diseases that people can get from pets. And most troubling, when people are infected by their pet, they usually don't know it.
Definitely!
Echinococcus granulosus
This is also known as 'Sheep Herder's Disease.' If a dog eats food with the larvae in it (i.e. sheep), the larvae hatch inside the dog and lay eggs. The human can then pet the dog or come into contact with the dog's feces and if they do not wash their hands properly can ingest the eggs and hatch inside of their gastrointestinal tract. These larvae can actually migrate to the liver and form a cyst known as the 'hyatid cyst'. Usually these cysts are asymptomatic but occasionally they can cause compression symptoms in the abdomen due to mass effect.
Yes, imagine how you would feel if you had a bunch of long worms in your stomach feeding off of your nutrients. Most of the time tapeworms in dogs are not fatal though. Proper treatment for tapeworms will most likely prevent any harm coming to puppers :-p
Yes, it can be transmitted from one dog to another.As this can be very damaging to a dogs health, so best to get your dog to the vet, who will provide medicine for your dog which will deal with the matter and keep your dog healthy.
No - tape worms are transmitted through infected fleas. When immature tape worms are inside the fleas, they go through at least one stage of development.
However, if one dog has fleas that are infested with tape worms, it is possible for those fleas to jump off one dog and onto the next. When the second dog ingests the fleas (generally while biting at the irritated skin), the second dog can become infested with tape worms as well.
No, the canine tapeworms are not infectious to humans. Humans have their own tapeworms that cycle through cows or pigs; they have been eradicated in the United States.
Yes, especially childen if they are around dog feces. Tapeworm medicine is very inexpensive at the vet, don't mess with store sold ones, it only takes about 3-4 pills and that's it.
Yes, most commonly if they share the same yard or food/water. The feces carry the worms and are transferred through contact.
No,intestinal worms and tape worms are possibilities
No.
They would have to drink contaminated water.
no
yes that's how dogs get worms Yes, tape worms like to lay eggs on fish. Later that fish becomes sushi. Then you may eat that fish. Then the tape worm's eggs will hatch.
To get rid of tape worms there is a special medicine to get ridm of them . Go to your closest chemist or maybe tell your doctor and they may suscribe them for you. do not be embarrased if you do have them.
if the dog had disease round worms. or tape worms.
The tape worms hosts are human and animals. Mostly common in humans, cats, and dogs, and also mostly common in ifants and young children.
The primary host of a tape worm would be the pig, it is when humans eat uncooked pork that the eggs of the tape worm are passed on to the secondary host us (humans).
Dogs get tape worms from garbage or from eating uncooked meat specially pork.
If the dogs have fleas, there is a big possibility it has has tapeworms too.
You never mentioned what kind of worms your dog was treated. For hook and round worms an over the counter treatment may be enough. If you go to the vet they will give your dog Strongid-T, which will take care of the hook and round worms. If you are seeing white worms coming out of your dogs rectum or you see white worms in the fecal matter, your dogs has Tape worms. There is no over the counter treatment that will get rid of Tape worms. You must go to the vet who will give you a little pill to give to your dog. If your dog has tape worms you may also find tiny and I mean tiny little off white, sesame seed looking things in your dogs bedding. These are Tape worms that have crawled out of your dogs rectum and dried up and died. Sometimes this is the only evidence that a dog owner will see and wonder what the heck they are. Now you know.
