* Type of worm: Different types of worms can have different lifecycles and produce different numbers of eggs.
* Severity of infection: Some dogs may have a mild infection with only a few worms, while others may have a severe infection with many worms.
* Treatment: Worming medication can kill worms and prevent future infections.
If you suspect your dog may have worms, it's important to see a veterinarian. They can diagnose the type of worm, determine the severity of the infection, and recommend the appropriate treatment.
Here are some signs that your dog may have worms:
* Diarrhea
* Vomiting
