Intestinal parasites are extremely common in dogs of all ages, and most can't be seen with the naked eye, which means you might not know if your dog is infected. Four different types of worms commonly infect dogs and puppies: roundworms, hookworms, tapeworms, and whipworms. Puppies are also commonly infected with a single-cell intestinal parasite known as coccidian. Adult dogs can become infected with coccidia as well, but many dogs develop an immunity to these parasites. Dogs can become infected with intestinal parasites in different ways. Puppies often become infected with roundworms prior to birth or when nursing from their mother. Tapeworms can be transmitted if a dog swallows an infected flea (treating flea infestations goes hand in hand with treating tapeworm infections). Dogs can pick up hookworms and whipworms from their environment, often from the feces of infected dogs, or contaminated soil or water. Some of the most common symptoms of worms in dogs included digestive upset (vomiting or diarrhea), gas, bloated belly (pot-bellied appearance), increased appetite, unexplained weight loss, weakness, and bloody stool or diarrhea. In puppies especially, intestinal parasite infections can cause anemia and poor growth. If you suspect that your dog might have worms, bring him to the veterinarian for a physical exam and fecal test. Treatment is generally easy with over-the-counter dewormers for dogs. Some worms can be transmitted to humans (children are especially vulnerable), so it's important to keep your dog parasite free. When choosing a dewormer for dogs, you need to know what type of worms your dog has, which is why the veterinary exam is so important. You can purchase a dewormer for specific types of worms, or you can choose a broad-spectrum product that kills many different types of worms. Dewormers for dogs come in several forms including tablets, granules, powders, and liquids, so talk to your veterinarian about the option that is best for your dog. Once you know what kind of dewormer you need, take a look at our top picks for the best non-prescription dewormer for dogs.

| Trends and Products: Protecting Pets from Parasites - Pet Age Posted: 01 Apr 2020 05:01 AM PDT  PROTECTING PETS FROM PARASITES Fleas and ticks aren't just a nuisance, they can cause a pet significant blood loss or anemia if left untreated. In addition, these parasites can carry diseases, which makes it even more vital for the industry to help consumers keep their pets safe from these pests. Although fleas and ticks may be less prevalent during colder months, there's technically no off-season for them, making year-round prevention essential. Recently, the milder winter and potentially longer summer is sure to lead to an increase in activity of food for animals that these parasites rely on for survival. No matter where a pet owner lives, regular inspections of a dog or cat's skin is important, with special attention paid to the ears, face and inner thighs. Using a comb to get deep beneath a pet's coat will help with the inspection, especially when it comes to locating fleas and their eggs. Thanks to advancements in science and holistic medicine, there are more products than ever before for the treatment, prevention and control of flea and tick infestation. Flea and tick products come in a variety of forms, including pills and chews to sprays and food toppers to collars and shampoos. With so many different applications to choose from, it's up to consumers to decide which one is best for their pet. Pet retailers can play a vital role in helping to educate their customers about not only the importance of flea and tick prevention, but also the options that are available to them. Products that are powerful on pests but gentle on the dog or cat will provide relief without causing undo harm on the pets that we serve.

| FDA asks pet supply shops to stop selling chloroquine phosphate - NorthcentralPa.com Posted: 01 Apr 2020 08:00 AM PDT Chloroquine phosphate, a drug used to treat aquarium fish parasites, has become a controversial subject after an Arizona couple attempted to self-medicate for COVID-19 using the drug, believing that it was equivalent to the anti-malaria drug of the same name. The FDA is still investigating the case of the couple in Arizona, one of whom died from using the drug inappropriately. NBC News reported on the couple, both in their 60s, who became deathly ill after they ingested fish food that contained chloroquine phosphate. According to NBC News, the man's wife said she had watched televised briefings during which President Donald Trump talked about the potential benefits of chloroquine. The FDA is now concerned that more people may use the aquarium fish treatment to self-medicate. "Animal drugs are not interchangeable with human drugs; chloroquine products that are sold for aquarium use have not been evaluated to determine whether they are safe, effective, properly manufactured, or adequately labelled for fish, let alone humans. Nobody should take any form of chloroquine unless it has been prescribed by a licensed healthcare provider and obtained through a legitimate source," said the FDA in in a release. Following the incident in Arizona, the FDA has been working with online marketplaces to remove all chloroquine that is intended for aquarium use to prevent further tragedy. Many products have already been removed from store shelves, both physical and online, through these efforts. Currently, there is no approved drug or vaccine that can prevent or cure COVID-19. Any product that is being sold with such a claim should be reported to the FDA via email or phone: FDA-COVID-19-Fraudulent-Products@fda.hhs.gov or 1-888-InfoFDA (1-888-463-6332).  |
