You need to take a stool sample to the vet for a diagnoses, but if it was a small worm that resembled a piece of rice it is more than likely a tapeworm. Tapeworm can reach almost 8 inches the most common way for dogs to get tapeworm is from fleas. Dogs can also acquire tapeworms by eating other infected animals. Or it could be roundworms. Roundworms are long, white and described as looking like spaghetti.
