What are tapeworms in dogs?

"Tapeworms in dogs are long, flat, segmented internal parasites. Tapeworm segments often look like pieces of rice and seeing them in your dog's feces is a sign of infection. Other symptoms of tapeworm include licking or biting around the anal area and scooting the anus along the floor. Heavy tapeworm infestations can cause weight loss and malnourishment, so it is important to seek treatment if you notice symptoms."

Do I need a prescription for dog tapeworm medicine?

"You do need a prescription for dog tapeworm medicine. Your vet may prescribe a dewormer for your dog or puppy after diagnosing tapeworms, or she may suggest a monthly flea medication that includes a tapeworm-controlling anthelmintic. Many oral flea medications contain ingredients that treat and control parasites like tapeworms, roundworms, hookworms and/or whipworms, and many are formulated with heartworm preventatives, as well. Talk to your vet about which tapeworm medication might be right for your pup, then order it directly from the Chewy pharmacy. We can contact your vet for the prescription and ship them right to your front door, no driving or hassle required!"
