Internal and External Parasites in Dogs

Ascarids – Roundworms
•4 to 8 inches in length•Egg laying adults live in small intestines of dogs less
than 6 months old.
![Page 4: Dogs Lesson:#9 Class:Small Animal Science Objective:Students will be able to identify the types and signs of internal and external parasites that affect](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070408/56649e4f5503460f94b4647b/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Infection of Roundworms
•Caused by:1. Ingestion of eggs2. Transmission of mother dog to unborn pups.3. Transmission of mother dog to nursing pups.
![Page 5: Dogs Lesson:#9 Class:Small Animal Science Objective:Students will be able to identify the types and signs of internal and external parasites that affect](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070408/56649e4f5503460f94b4647b/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Development
•The small larvae hatch in the dogs stomach.•Grow to an adult worm that begins to produce eggs in
about 12 weeks.•Older dogs develop a resistance to the adult worm.
1. When they ingest an infected egg, the hatchedlarvae does not grow.

How are they passed on to the pups?•Pregnant Dog
Roundworms to mother dogs liver
Transfer via blood from liver through umbilical cord to Pups liver.
Go to lungs
Coughed up from the lungs
Swallowed into pups stomach

•Lactating dog1. Roundworms can be passed thru milk.
![Page 8: Dogs Lesson:#9 Class:Small Animal Science Objective:Students will be able to identify the types and signs of internal and external parasites that affect](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070408/56649e4f5503460f94b4647b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Signs
•Depends on the number of worms present.•Several hundred worms growing to adults – pup will
appear pot bellied.•Pups will become thin because of deprivation of
nutrients.
![Page 9: Dogs Lesson:#9 Class:Small Animal Science Objective:Students will be able to identify the types and signs of internal and external parasites that affect](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070408/56649e4f5503460f94b4647b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Treatment
•Treatment of pups need to be done early.•Treat pups at 2, 4, 6and 8 weeks of age.•There are several drugs that a veterinarian can
prescribe.

Hookworms
• Bloodsucking parasites• Adult – 1 inch long• Has a large mouth that attaches to small intestines.• This causes a small bleeding site.• When several hundred worms are present, the loss
of blood can be dangerous.
![Page 11: Dogs Lesson:#9 Class:Small Animal Science Objective:Students will be able to identify the types and signs of internal and external parasites that affect](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070408/56649e4f5503460f94b4647b/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

great.

Treatment
•Older dogs should receive a single, one-day dewormingonce or twice a year.
•Young females/pups same as roundworms.
![Page 16: Dogs Lesson:#9 Class:Small Animal Science Objective:Students will be able to identify the types and signs of internal and external parasites that affect](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070408/56649e4f5503460f94b4647b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Whipworms
•Live in the lower digestive track of dogs especially thececum.
•The adult worm is broad at one end and narrow at the other.•About 2.5 inches long•Thread there narrow end into the lining of the cecum.•Produce football shaped eggs than live in the soil for
several years.
![Page 17: Dogs Lesson:#9 Class:Small Animal Science Objective:Students will be able to identify the types and signs of internal and external parasites that affect](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070408/56649e4f5503460f94b4647b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Signs
•Irritation to the gut lining.•Cause loss of fluids.•Watery feces that is tinged with blood.•Dogs can become dehydrated which can cause death.
![Page 18: Dogs Lesson:#9 Class:Small Animal Science Objective:Students will be able to identify the types and signs of internal and external parasites that affect](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070408/56649e4f5503460f94b4647b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Prevention and Treatment
•Dewormers available through veterinarians.•Do not place back in the same yard.
Life Cycle
![Page 19: Dogs Lesson:#9 Class:Small Animal Science Objective:Students will be able to identify the types and signs of internal and external parasites that affect](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070408/56649e4f5503460f94b4647b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Tapeworms
•Flat segmented worms.•Usually 1 foot in length.•Live in small intestine.
Spread
•Tapeworms shed their eggs filled terminal segments infeces of infected animals.
•Segments are about the size of a grain of rice and canbe seen by the naked eye.

Life Cycle
![Page 21: Dogs Lesson:#9 Class:Small Animal Science Objective:Students will be able to identify the types and signs of internal and external parasites that affect](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070408/56649e4f5503460f94b4647b/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Four types of tapeworms:
1. Didlylidium caninum2. Taenia pisiformis3. Echinococcus granulosus4. Echinococcus multilocularis
![Page 22: Dogs Lesson:#9 Class:Small Animal Science Objective:Students will be able to identify the types and signs of internal and external parasites that affect](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070408/56649e4f5503460f94b4647b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Intermediate hosts depend in the type of tapeur.
•Diplylidium – fleas•Taenia – wild rabbits
Treatment
•Eliminate the hosts.

Heartworms
•Live in heart or artery that carries blood to the heart.•Thin – 6 to 14 inches long.
![Page 24: Dogs Lesson:#9 Class:Small Animal Science Objective:Students will be able to identify the types and signs of internal and external parasites that affect](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070408/56649e4f5503460f94b4647b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Damage
•Vital organs are affected.1. Lungs 2. Enlarged heart
3. Liver and kidneys becomedamaged.

Life cycle
![Page 26: Dogs Lesson:#9 Class:Small Animal Science Objective:Students will be able to identify the types and signs of internal and external parasites that affect](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070408/56649e4f5503460f94b4647b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Transmission
•By mosquito•When a mosquito bites an infected dog, it takes up the
blood that may contain microfilariae.•Larvae develops in mosquito for about 2 weeks.•The mosquito bites another dog, the infected larvae are
passed on.•The larvae move through the tissues of the body for 2 to 3
months and enter the heart.•They reach adult size in the heart in another 3 months.
