Parasites from a dog’s poop?

Question by Zack Canbash: Parasites from a dog’s poop?
Well, my friend has 2 dogs and they have a fenced backyard.
Today, he let them into the house and everytime they see me, they get all on me and stuff, like they get on their 2 hind legs and stand up and touch my pants with their 2 front legs.
I was wondering, if they stepped in their own poop and then that got in my pants could I get parasites?
I did touch my mouth…

Question by Theresa C: Why is dog poop bad for compost if you use the compost on your veggie garden?
I know that dog poo may carry parasites but doesn’t all animal poop have the same chance? Is it possible to heat up your compost pile hot enough to kill the parasites? If you can how do you get it hot enough?

Best answer:

Answer by D. A
1) it contains bacteria that can contaminate your food, and can contain worms and other parasites
2) dogs eat meat, and their poop attracts flies and other nasty stuff you do not want in your compost pile.

Question by hiti: My dog is eating rabbit poop, can she catch worms or other parasites?
My 7 month old Yorkie keeps eating rabbit poop, can she catch parasites from this??

Best answer:

Answer by The Official Rabbit Encyclopedia
As long as your rabbit doesn’t have any kind of intestinal parasites then she can’t. A lot of dogs eat bunny poop, it’s nothing to worry about. If the rabbit had any kind of intestinal parasites you would be able to see them in the rabbits poop.
