Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Yes! It does look like Brady is passing adult worms. If that is fresh stool and hasn't been sitting outside for hours. I recommend collecting a stool sample and having it tested by your Vet. The worms seem shorter and thicker than round worms so it is important to know if the is fresh stool or old stool since free living nematodes do come to eat stool. A stool sample (looking at the eggs) will help identify the exact parasite he is passing and then how to treat it. Dogs usually do acting normal when they have worms. He is only 6 months so intestinal parasites are common. I hope this helps and I wish Brady the best!

I'm wondering if they mean an intestinal parasites. Those can be common in dogs and cause diarrhea. Dogs can get four different types of intestinal worms: Roundworms, hookworms, whipworms, and tapeworms. It is concerning that Pharaoh has been having diarrhea for a while, and whenever a dog has diarrhea longer than 24 hours, it's time to see a vet. Bring along a sample of his feces for the vet to examine for intestinal worms. A lot of times, only the eggs will be shed in the feces indicating worms, and those eggs can only be seen via microscope. I would take him into a vet today. Good luck, I hope this helps!
