Are these maggots or does my dog have worms?

Question by Happy Girl: Are these maggots or does my dog have worms?
I went to pick up after my Ridgeback 9 month old the other day in the backyard … one of his pieces had white squiggling things in it. Bigger than maggots but shorter than worms … could this have grown inside there on it’s own from my backyard insects or is this something in my dog’s belly?

Best answer:

Answer by DP
Your dog likely has worms.. You should take him to the vet, get the worm diagnosed properly and treat the worm with the proper medication.

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!!!!
