Are puppies born with worms?

Most puppies are born with worms. This is because the mother dog can pass them on to her puppies while they are still in the womb, or shortly after they are born. Puppies can also get worms by eating infected soil or licking their paws after walking in infected areas.

Worms can cause a variety of health problems in puppies, including weight loss, poor coat quality, and digestive upset. To protect your puppy from these parasites, it’s important to take them for regular check-ups at the vet to make sure they don’t have any worms. You should also give your pup monthly preventative treatment to keep them safe from worm infestations.

Finally, make sure you clean up after your pup immediately when outside and wash their paws regularly when they come inside! By taking these steps, you can protect your furry friend from experiencing the discomfort of worms!
