Hookworms are intestinal parasites that can cause big problems for dogs, especially puppies. In fact, hookworm infections can lead to anemia and even death if left untreated in young dogs.
This article will tell you everything you need to know about hook worms in puppies: how they’re transmitted, what symptoms to look for, how they’re diagnosed and treated, and most importantly, how to prevent them.
It’s also worth noting that hookworms are zoonotic, meaning they can be transmitted from animals to humans, so prevention is key for both your puppy and your family.
