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!

What is the cause for your indoor dog getting worms?
Depending on the type of worms, it could be caused by different things, but most are caused by the dog eating a flea that hosts the egg of the parasite.

Can dogs have allergies to flea bites?
They absolutely can! Veterinarians call this "flea bite dermatitis". In this type of condition, the saliva of the flea causes an allergic reaction in the dog. This is quite common, and can result in a dog feeling quite uncomfortable and itchy. The best solution? Using flea products from your veterinarian, including advantage or revolution. Flea medications purchased from pet stores are less effective and less controlled. Certain flea medications from your veterinarian (such as Advantage) can kill the flea on contact, so the flea doesn't even need to bite the animal to die. Other medications kill when the flea feeds, but prevents full-blown flea problems by killing adult fleas and flea larva. For dogs that have this condition, it is beneficial to keep the dogs on these types of medications whenever they are at high risk to getting fleas. Since dogs can get fleas all year round, some owners may choose to keep their pets on a flea control throughout year. Nutrition and supplements that help to maintain healthy skin and coat can also be used to reduce the symptoms.
