You'll see evidence of one (or more).
You might see tapeworm body-segments in the dog's feces right after elimination (they look like white, flat worms that elongate and contract, and are about a half-inch long), or dried segments that most people say look like uncooked wild rice stuck to fur around the dog's anus or on the dog's bed.
Also, if your dog begins scooting around on his rear, it may be a sign of some kind of internal parasite.
