The most common way dogs get tapeworms is from having fleas. Dogs that hunt or chase small rodents and rabbits (even in their own backyard) may also be at risk of infection from tapeworms.

How do I know if my dog has tapeworms?

Tapeworm segments are easily seen around your pet’s anal region or in their poop, similar to grains of white rice. Of course, it’s not always obvious that your dog has tapeworms, so the best way to identify a problem is through an exam performed by a veterinarian.

What is deworming a dog?

Deworming simply means getting rid of intestinal worms (parasites) in your dog. Worms can sound gross and embarrassing, but most dogs will get at least one type of intestinal worm at some point in their lives. Tapeworms are common in dogs. Deworming medications contain ingredients that break down and debilitate worms so they can be expelled from your dog’s body.

How often should I deworm my dog?

Luckily, one treatment with Tapeworm Dewormer (praziquantel tablets) for dogs should be adequate to clear out the tapeworms.
