can my other dog or cats get round worms if my puppy has them2007-11-25 3:00:05Answers:

Yes they can if they eat the other dogs poop.

---

yes, they should all be wormed if one has them.

---

Sure can. Good news is most animals are born with round worm and its easy to get rid of. I would take a stool sample of all your pets when puppy goes and be sure to clean up accidents and potty places in the yard with a little bleach.

---

Yes, thats why its wise to treat all animals in the household at the same time for worms. Be warned, over the counter wormers DO NOT kill all kinds of intestinal parasites. Only your vet can offer a complete treatment.

---

Yes! You need to take all of them in to a vet to be checked out.

---

yes you should worm all your dogs when one has them cause they will get them as well

---

yes they can

---

yes you should have him dewormed. keep the other animals away from him in the meantime

---

Definitely all of them can get the parasite, take them all to a vet and get them cured. Over the counter de-wormers don't always work. The vet's solution does work. Make sure to thoroughly clean and disinfect all the places where they have gone to do there bathroom duties.

DUH?

YES!!

Of course!

---

Yes they can, but they probably already had them. An older animal can carriy a small load and show no sign of stress until there is an accident or illness to add to the stress. Worm them all on a regular basis (4x a year minimum for outdoor animals). Once a year when they go to the vet for heart worm checks, take some stool samples with you to check the effectiveness of your program.

---

Yep, keep the puppy seperate from the other animals until the puppy has been fully dewormed. If I were you I'd have the other animals check to make sure they don't have worms too

---

yes you need to quarnantine the animal infected but treat all the animals with the medication needed
