Question

How hookworms and whipworms affect dogs health and how it should be treated? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Male | unneutered | 9 months and 26 days old

Dr. Melanie, BVSc MS · Accepted Answer

Hookworms and whipworms cause vomiting, diarrhea, weight loss, a decrease in appetite, low energy, an enlarged belly, and a dull coat. They need to be treated with a deworming medication. I typically recommend Panacur or Drontal, both of which you can get at your vet. I hope this helps!
