There are several different types of worms that afflict dogs, from roundworms and whipworms to the sometimes fatal heart worm. 1  Roundworms can grow up to six inches in length. They live in the intestines and appear as small, noodle-like bits in fecal matter. 2  Hookworms are thin and small.
All of these kinds of worms are called parasites because they feed off the dog instead of living on their own. These are not worms like earthworms; parasite worms have to get inside a dog to reproduce. The most common ones in dogs are roundworms, hookworms, whipworms, tapeworms, and heartworms. Roundworms and hookworms are found a lot in puppies and sometimes in adult dogs. Whipworms, tapeworms, and heartworms are seen more in older dogs.
