Intestinal worms can cause serious disease in
puppies and dogs of all ages. They have the
ability to kill a puppy and make an adult dog
unwell. Hence, it is very important for
pet-parents to understand the danger that the
worms pose to  puppies. It may be difficult to
know if your puppy has worms. Sometimes, you are
not aware that your puppy has worms until he gets
sick. Puppies can develop life threatening
disease with the worm infection.

• Puppies can be infected by four different types
  of intestinal worms in Australia
• 1 Hookworms
• If your puppy has a hookworm infection, you may
  see soft, tar-like faeces, or diarrhoea with
  blood stains in the faeces.
• The puppy can lose a significant amount of blood
  in the faeces which can result in serious anaemia
  a very dangerous condition for a young puppy.
• Since hookworms are very small they can hardly be
  seen in the faeces.

5

• 2 Roundworms
• Roundworms are large worms measuring up to 18 cm
  in length. They are normally spread to the puppy
  while it is in the mothers uterus.
• Hence, puppies can be born with a roundworm
  infection. These worms may cause diarrhoea with
  blood stained faeces.
• A heavy burden of roundworm can also block the
  bowel due to the large size of these worms.
  Puppies infected with roundworms often have a
  pot-bellied appearance and a rough coat.
• Once the puppy has been treated these large
  roundworms are excreted in the faeces.

6

• 3 Tapeworms
• Tapeworm infection in puppies often results in
  the pet rubbing its bottom along the ground.
• This behaviour is due to the fact that the
  moving tapeworm segments are irritating the
  puppys anus.  
• It is very easy to identify the segments. They
  are normally about the size of a rice grain and
  are very active.
• They can be seen with the naked eye on the
  puppys fresh droppings or on the fur around
  their bottom.
• 4 - WhipwormThe whipworm affects the lower bowel
  of the puppy. It causes diarrhoea accompanied
  with mucus and fresh blood.

• So what needs to be done to eliminate these
  common worms from your puppy?
• The answer is to use a high quality worming
  treatment such as Canex, Drontal,
  Popantel or Endogard For Dogs.
• Puppies should be wormed every two weeks until
  three months of age, then wormed on a monthly
  basis till they are six months of age. Puppies
  older than six months of age and all adult dogs
  should be wormed every three months.
• If you are using a monthly spot-on product to
  control heartworm and intestinal worms such as
  Advocate or Revolution, you should give an
  additional allwormer tablet like Drontal at least
  every six months, as these spot-ons do not treat
  all the intestinal worms described above.
• You should also seek advice from your
  veterinarian before commencing the treatment to
  ensure there are no complicating health issues.
