Summary: How Dogs Get Roundworms
Roundworms. Are these parasites truly a danger to your dog? There is no question that they are a potential danger, but the actual risk of contracting roundworms depends on a number of conditions. Perhaps you have already had to deal with roundworms. I hope not, but if so, then you know they are a very common parasite. Generally speaking they start out by taking over the upper and lower intestinal tract of the dog and are usually discovered in puppies. The first indication you may have that there is a problem is GI (gastrointestinal) tract difficulty. If, when examining your dog's poop, you find earth-worm like "things," then you dog probably has roundworms and you need to get it to a vet. Roundworms can grow up to 18 to 20 inches in length.
