Symptoms of ascariasis in dogs:

Sick dogs are emaciated, have pale mucous membranes, loss of appetite, vomiting, and sometimes heterophilia, first diarrhea and then constipation. The coat is rough and dull, and neurological symptoms (epileptiform spasms) are sometimes present. Puppies infected with roundworms have stunted growth and enlarged abdomen. A large number of parasites can cause intestinal obstruction and are sometimes excreted naturally in the feces.

Measures to prevent roundworms in dogs:

1. Regular deworming. Puppies should be dewormed for the first time when they are 20 days old, and once a month between 1 and 8 months old. Adult dogs should be dewormed twice a year. Usually timely deworming based on fecal test results. While deworming the puppies, you should also deworm the nursing bitches to achieve better results.

2. Keep the environment, tableware, and food clean, and remove feces in the kennel in a timely manner.

Treatment methods for dogs infected with roundworms:

1. Dogs with ascariasis must be fed anthelmintics immediately.

2. For drug treatment, you can take levamisole orally. Or use mebendazole, 10 mg/kg body weight, twice a day for two consecutive days. Or take anti-insect spirit 5~10 mg/kg orally. Or take Qilingling orally, 100 mg per kilogram of body weight.
