My husband and I adopted a dog from the local animal shelter last week. I took him to the vet just for a check up the day after we brought him home. He had hook worms and whip worms. I’ve given him the 3 day treatment for the worms already. He’s eating and drinking normally and doesn’t seem overly tired or lethargic, but late last night he started vomiting/coughing/gagging. He starts with a deep almost chesty cough and gags then throws up a white foam/clear liquid. Every once in a while he also coughs up a thicker mucus almost and his nose runs quite a bit. He’s also breathing a little heavily, but he’s done that for as long as we’ve had him. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. We’re going to the vet first thing in the morning, but any advice on how I can treat his symptoms temporarily or help make him more comfortable would be great. Any insight as to what this might be would be appreciated as well so we’re not totally unprepared at the dr’s tomorrow. Thanks so much!

I was doing routine laundry and finally got around to a pile of towels that had been collecting into a full load (there are only two of us and it costs to wash/dry so we wait for a load) for at least two weeks. I threw one of the towels into the washer and a bunch of tiny black specks fell out. I thought it was just dirt or something, since I could have used it to wipe the dog off – but they were moving. I squished one, and blood (or something that looked like it) came out.
After it went through the wash on high heat and the dryer on high, I shook out the towels again and only a few of these tiny – less than 1/4″ – whitish worms fell out.
They’re not pinworms, because I’ve checked my stools and my dog’s and none are visible (I have pretty good eyesight and I looked carefully) and I have no symptoms.
They’re too small or too big to be any sort of worm I know of for my dog, and he has no symptoms either. But I still want to know if anyone has an idea on what they could be.
Any help?

i have two dogs and im pretty sure they both have it since they are always together… they have had all of the symptoms (diarhea, dull coat, little appetite, coughing) I really freak out when my dogs are sick so I want them dewormed immediately. Is it expensive? I know i need to supply stool samples but how much does all of this cost??
btw they have had symptoms for about a wk.
