What is the host of the hookworm?
The hookworm is not an intermediate host, but the hookworm larvae is.An intermediate host would be like the flea carrying infected larvae for tapeworms. The infected flea would be the intermediate or secondary host because it shelters the parasite or worm larvae for a short time. In any intermediate host, "some" developmental stage is completed.In hookworms, the intermediate host comes into play as one of five routes by which puppies and adult dogs can acquire hookworm infection.Migration through the placenta while the puppies are in the uterus.Puppies can feed on larvae through their mothers' milk.Puppies and adult dogs can feed on hookworm larvae in the soil.The larvae can directly penetrate a dog's skin, such as the pads of their feet when they are walking in a dirty pen or kennel where an infected dog has toileted.The puppies or adult dogs can obtain hookworm by eating an intermediate host in the soil or through grooming, which would be the hookworm larvae.Dogs who recover from hookworm infection usually become carriers through larvae encysted in the dogs' tissues. If the dog becomes ill or is placed under serious stress, the dormant larvae are released and the worms appear in the intestines, causing bloody diarrhea.
