: Worms
: MyDaneDuke February 27, 2007, 09:34:59 PM
Our puppy had been wormed at his first visit with the vet when the breeder took him for his first set of shots,but I know he has to have another treatment or two. My husband read up on worms in puppies and he said that it is possible for puppies to pass the worms to humans. Is this really true?  This may seem like a dumb question, but I'm not very educated on parasites I guess.  My concern is for my 4 year old child...should I be concerned that the puppy could somehow infect my child?
