However, if you suspect that something is wrong with your dog take it to the veterinarian and have your dog examined. Your veterinarian will take a detailed history from you, with attention to your dog's diet or anything your dog has eaten out of the ordinary. Routine laboratory tests include a complete blood count, biochemical profile, urinalysis, and a fecal examination.

Since some symptoms of Trichinosis are non-specific it cannot be said with certainty that your dog is infected with pork roundworm. Take your dog to the veterinarian and have it fully examined. If your dog does have Trichinosis the veterinarian will prescribe roundworm-specific antiparasitic drugs to reduce the number of parasites in the muscles.

Hi! I’m Sreten Filipović. I graduated from the Faculty of Agriculture at the University of Belgrade, with a master's degree in Environmental Protection in Agricultural Systems. I’ve worked as a researcher at Finland's Natural Resources Institute (LUKE) on a project aimed at adapting south-western Finland to drought episodes. I founded a consulting agency in the field of environment and agriculture to help farmers who want to implement the principles of sustainability on their farms. I’m also a founding member of the nonprofit organization Ecogenesis from Belgrade whose main goal is non-formal education on the environment and ecology. In my spare time, I like to write blog posts about sustainability, the environment, animal farming, horticulture, and plant protection. I’ve also published several science-fiction short stories.
