Unfortunately, all puppies and kittens are born with intestinal worms. In addition, pets using pet parks, doggy day cares with communal potty areas, or living in farmyards or on city streets where poop is on the sidewalk are prone to having worms. Deworming medications can rid pets of intestinal worms, and while no single dewormer removes all types of worms, many products are effective for more than one type. Once your pet has been successfully dewormed, you still need to be on the lookout for signs of re-infection. Pets can be re-exposed to worms every time they play outside.
