What kind of worms can a dog get from eating cat poop?

There are three major types of worms: roundworms, hookworms and tapeworms. In addition, there are less common internal parasites including whipworms and flukes.

Incidentally, there are no pin worms that infest dogs.

Answer 2

Most worms that dogs can get are expelled through their excrement. Most likely it's either roundworms, or tapeworms. Tapeworms are segmented, they can be long or short, short ones are often described as resembling a grain of rice. I know, ewe. You can sometimes see them around your dogs anus, or they can sometimes fall out, say in his bed. They get tapes from ingesting fleas. Roundworms are long and skinny, described as resembling a spaghetti noodle and can be extremely long. There are plenty of worms that you can't see. Dogs can pick up worms from even just the dirt outside. All puppies are born with worms, they are very common. You should de-worm your adult dog with a broad spectrum wormer every 6 months. It doesn't even require a trip to the vet as wormers are sold over the counter. The same wormers are given to farm animals as dogs, you can usually find them very inexpensive at feed stores. It is very important to keep up with parasites, they are also transmitted to humans.

Answer 3

If your dog has worms in its poop then it means the wormers entered it after it it exited your dog or it might have already entered your dog before defication. I do suggest getting your pets checked at a veterinarion office to see if your pet or pets need to be dewormed.
