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.

Hookworms are small, thin worms that are less than an inch long. The appearance of the mouth parts vary by species, but all hookworms have structures (hook-like teeth or plates) to help them attach to the intestinal wall.
