I have 3 dogs and found worms in the poop.I took them to the vet and wormed all 3 because I didn’t know which one it was. The worms are white and look like rice. About two weeks later I noticed them again… wormed them again with cestex. It’s about a week later and there are still worms. About 20 seconds after the worms touch air they die, could they just be maggots? I’m tired of worrying. Need help!!!!

Except for looking at the stool for worms cuz it may not have hatched yet…

Also except for going to the vet just to get it checked…cuz I will pay a lot like $50 and I can buy a lot of dog food with that
In my area…Stool checks cost $50 and by just asking the vet it cost you..$30..

Not really a lot of dog food but I could buy some stuff like leash, collar, and premium dog food with that

This is regarding the dog that was coughing last night with the question about benadryl. We did not give the benadryl and the dog slept the night, only coughing once early this morning.
Last night we gave him bread to help anything stuck go on down. He ate it eagerly and it did not change the coughing.
My daughter uses him as a demo dog for training (she is an apprentice). The location she trains is at a kennel so contagious illness is a possibility. He is consistently on heartworm meds and has been since he was a few months old.
To me the cough sounds like heart worm, but it seems to have come on too suddenly for that, plus he is on preventative.
He has no runny nose or other symptoms that seem to go with kennel cough. He is not acting sick.
The cough is less frequent this morning, but is still harsh sounding.
We will be taking him to the vet on Monday, but would like to help the cough now if we can.
Any thoughts?
He’ll be going to the vet; it does not seem to be an emergency.
