Sounds like roundworms.  Common.  Bears have em bad.  Deworm routine all dogs all the time a good idea.  Betting the worms came from gopher and escaped gopher to dog stomach.  Life cycle of these buggers very informative and creepy.

1ml per 10lbs.

Doesn't work on tapes and its possible the worms were tapeworms.

It is why the heart worm preventative is commonly confused as to treating other types of worms. Many of the heart worm meds also include pyrantel which kills whip, round and hook worms.

I gave her a triple wormer pill from the feed store, monitoring stools if she was infested there should be a purge of worms.

why not just use  ivomec liquid (invermectin)?   a little math will get the correct dosage which would be about a pea sized drop.  1/10cc per 10lb body weight for a typical 1% solution.
does all the worms + heart worms and ticks to boot.  Could use it for other livestock as well which would be nice.


pretty sure they were round worms,  like I said though I never got to see them myself unfortunately.
