More InformationDogs can be infested with two types of tapeworms. Fleas carry the most common type, and rodents carry the less common type. Tapeworm segments are often visible on the surface of your pets stool. They usually appear as short (1/2-3/4"), flat, white particles, that when first passed are mobile; or they may be passed still connected in a long, flat string. Dry segments may stick to your pets hair, and look similar to a grain of rice. Until recently, the only effective control has required a prescription. However, Praziquantel Canine Tape Worm Tabs are now available without a prescription, and are 100% effective in ridding your pet of both types of tapeworms.
