Hello. Thank you for using PetCoach. Great question! No, giving milk to dogs will not give them worms. Keep in mind though, once dogs are no longer puppies, most of them lose the ability to properly digest/breakdown dairy products so it is not really recommended that you give them milk. Here is a link to an article about this for you to read. http://www.akc.org/content/health/articles/can-dogs-drink-milk/ Hope this answers your question. Best wishes.
