This is an intestinal fluke and, interestingly, they are often carried by snails and are passed on when the dog munches a snail in the garden. The vet can treat the infestation.

Are these the same size as slugs? Is that picture to scale.

This subject is still making me really queezy.

Re: Our Dog Has Dog Poo Snails?

Nope. Seen them two times in different poos. Bought some expensive worming tablets (my partners mum thinks they might actually be worms *shrugs*), though they were done a while ago, we're going to do it with some proper ones this time

And yes we have 2 dogs, but at the moment we think its only one dog with bum slugs.

Thumbs up Re: Our Dog Has Dog Poo Snails?

Just read the bit about those things your dog can get when he's eaten snails. My beagle Alfie loves snails, he hunts them down and likes to eat them on the livingroom carpet. Will have to start looking at his poo now, thanks for that.
