Yes, humans can get whipworms. Since the eggs are found in feces, the eggs can be transferred through infected soil or water and through not washing your hands thoroughly after handling infected feces. Your dog could step in or roll on infected dog doo and you can get the eggs on your hands when you cut his nails or scratch his belly. This is one reason why frequent and thorough hand washing is so important. WRONG only dogs can get whip worm yes we can get it inside us but it wont do anything the egg (instead of hatch) will simply die simple for the whip worm is actuly a canine disease so humans are safe
