These larvae travel to the dog&#8217;s liver for maturation. Further, they travel to the dog&#8217;s lungs to become adults. Further they are coughed up or swallowed to reach the intestine. The adult roundworms live in the dog&#8217;s intestine and reproduce to lay eggs. The eggs are shed into the dog&#8217;s poop and develop into larvae. The cycle repeats when a healthy dog takes up larvae.<\/p>\n<p>Puppies may get roundworm larvae from the mother during the gestational period as well as from the mother&#8217;s milk when feeding.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Signs and Symptoms:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Diarrhea<\/li>\n<li>Vomiting<\/li>\n<li>Coughing<\/li>\n<li>Weight loss<\/li>\n<li>Dull hair coat<\/li>\n<li>Rounded, pot-belly appearance<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Diagnosis:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Fecal flotation<\/strong>: A lab test involving the testing of a sample of stool by a vet.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Treatments*:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadapetcare.com\/drontal-for-dogs\/wormers-treatment-13.aspx\">Drontal Allwormer<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadapetcare.com\/triworm-d-dewormer-for-dogs\/wormers-treatment-378.aspx\">Triworm-D<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadapetcare.com\/paragard-allwormer-for-dogs\/wormers-treatment-441.aspx\">Paragard Allwormer<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadapetcare.com\/panacur-granules-for-dogs\/wormers-treatment-318.aspx\">Panacur<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadapetcare.com\/popantel-for-dogs\/wormers-treatment-35.aspx\">Popantel Allwormer<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadapetcare.com\/cazitel-plus-tablets-for-dogs\/wormers-treatment-321.aspx\">Cazitel Flavored Allwormer<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>*Dosage: As suggested by your vet<\/p>\n<h2><strong>2.
