Hi,
Last night after my dog came in from running in the rain, and shook off, I found a freaky looking worm on my kitchen floorGROSSSSS!!!!!! It was about a little over 1 inch and was very skinny, and black, and when I picked it up in a napkin and squished it, it was sort of crunchy!!!!!!!!!! I'm freaked out because my dog gets groomed every 6 weeks and goes to the vet yearly for his shots, and is with me all the time, and never have I seen this. I am hopeing it is just something that hitched a ride on him while outside. I have 2 cats too, so I am freaking because I don't know what type of worm it was or where it came from, so I don't know if I need to be concerned for my pets or not. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. My dog goes to the vet soon for his shots, and has a bath in 2 more weeks. We have him bathed with special shampoo to cut down on the dander as my daughter, husband and myself have asthma and allergies to dander, but this helps us, and also keeps Buddy clean.
