Can a dog get worms when left at the groomers?

It would seem to be rather unlikely that a dog could pick up worms while at a groomer. I suppose if it had access to food or feces from another dog while it was there they could possibly pick up worms. It is very common for dogs to have worms and they should be checked regularly. Puppies need to be wormed as they often have worms even while nursing from the dam.


Can dogs have leeches in their feces?

Can you get worms from eating dog food?

YES! Absolutely, & even YOU can catch worms from dogs - roundworms especially. Worm eggs are in the dog's feces, are microscopic, and can be inhaled by your dog, or you, and transmitted in this way. So keep your dog AWAY from other dog's feces! They always want to smell other dog's feces, but try not to let that happen! If you handle any dog feces then be sure to THOROUGHLY wash your hands, immediately! If you fear that your dog may have worms then call your vet and find out how much they charge to test for worms. My vet only charges $30, so that's not bad at all. Worms, if left untreated, can eventually kill the dog!
