Hookworms in Dogs
Ancylostomiasis
Hookworms can be fatal, especially in puppies. As such, pet owners need to be vigilant for signs of hookworms in their dogs. Hookworms are parasites that can invade, inhabit, and live in the dog’s small intestines. In their fourth-stage larvae, these blood-sucking parasites can cause anemia and inflammation in the dog’s small intestine. Active worms leave bite sites and those sites continue to seep blood.
