Intestinal worm treatment

Worms can live in lots of different parts of your dog's intestines (his guts).

There are four main kinds of worms - roundworms, hookworms, whipworms and tapeworms. Your dog can get quite sick if he has a lot of worms.

It's difficult to prevent dogs from getting worms so you need to treat your dog regularly to kill any worms he may have picked up.

Discuss with your vet what's the best regular worm treatment for your dog.

Dog worms can also infect people so you should always wash your hands after touching your dog or picking up dog poo.
