Is that spreadable to humans, and if so what symptoms would we get. How can I treat my dog so it doesnt die, would especially like natural treatment, but give me whatever you got. Just tell me how to help my dog please. Thanks in advance.

    most parasites aren’t spreadable to humans. When my dog had roundworm, she vomited up worms. If she isn’t acting normal take her to a vet, or call and ask what you can get. Tractor Supply Co. sells de-wormer for pets; and that was what our veterinarian suggested.

    some may be tranferable,
    but your best bet is to go to a vet.
    if you ever think your dog is sick call and give the vet
    your dogs symptoms and they will tell you if you need to come in.

    Loose stools, weight loss and lack of appetite. I suggest you use the vet. Messing around with so called “natural” remedies can get you a dead pet long before you get them over the infestation Also unless your really into digging about in dog poo and trying to figure out what the parasite is, this of course providing it is a parasite, then a vet is your best choice.

    Listlessness, diarrhea, vomiting, bloated stomach, weight loss. There are many types of parasites and many treatments for the type your dog may have. You have to take the dog to a vet.
    There is Heartworm
    Hookworm
    Round worm
    Whipworm
    Giardia
    Parvovirus (not a parasite – a deadly disease)

    you need to take him to the vet, since there is a lot of different parasites, some of them are spreadable to humans. first find out which type is he caring, if you have small children around keep them away. and try not to be in contact with his saliva.
    Good luck

    Diareaahaaaaa Ahh I hate that.. :P

    Anyway, Yes that ^^.
    Also they may cough out worms.
    When they do to the bathroom, You might see the dog chasing is but like crazy and rubbing it all over.
    Of corse somtimes the worms don’t “Come out” Right away.
    The dog will be a little lethargic too.
    I think they get bloated to.
    And weight loss.

    {Some are spreaable. Scary eww i know. Haha. But most only is ingeste, Like when babies chew on toys from outside that were laying in teh dirt in which the dog crapped on. And if your hands are soiled don’t put them near your mouth etc.}

    Go to your vet, He/she has allt he awnsers.

    A stool sample should go into the vet to determine what type of worms to treat.Some must have an rx and again weight & age is(sometimes) a factor.
    All worms & parasites may not be visible to the eye like the obvious tapeworm.
    Often times pups will have bloated stomachs,always appear hungry & sometimes lethargic with dull looking eyes.
    Once treated, keep all of the poo cleaned up daily,wash food & water bowls daily.If other dogs have lived in yard before,sometimes the soil even needs trtmt. to avoid getting worms again.Thoroughly cook any safe(knuckle) bones & meats offered as well.
    A bit of cider vinegar in their water bowl helps keep the water fresh.Flies can lay eggs and create problems as well.
    If your dog is really infested,please go to the vet.
    Some people sprinkle a bit of garlic powder on food.Too much garlic is a blood thinner.Raw pumpkin seeds also helps to kill parasites.Natural remedies take longer & help with maintainance.
    Over the counter wormers can kill an animal if not dosed properly.Especially the young and elder animals.

    Dogs should be dewormed at least once a year.Yes, they can spread it to humans.And we all pretty much have some type of parasite in us.Especially those who work with dogs.

    You can buy dewormer at the local pet store.

    Loss of weight, worms in the stool. Yes, you can get it, if you touch the dog’s bottom or stool and then yourself without washing your hands first. Take the dog to the vet and ask for some treatment, natural or not, the dog needs to get rid of it’s worms.
