A couple of weeks ago my dogs killed a rabbit. I don't know how the rabbit got into their yard, but it made a wrong turn and ended up in the yard of four herding dogs. It didn't have a chance.
I found the carcass that evening when it was time for a potty break. Sydney was outside growling every time a dog passed her – very unusual – and when I peeked out the door to see what her problem was, I saw that she was guarding the rabbit. Istat mini 1 1 – a mini system monitor.
Bummer.
Perchik Worm Tail 3d
Three feelings came to me quickly…
- Dammit! Poor rabbit.
- OMG! The dogs ate the guts, which means veggies. BARF WINS!!!!
- Crap! Were there worms in the gut?
I reached out to my local raw group to find out the changes of the dogs getting worms from eating the rabbit and heard from two people. One person said that her dogs have killed many rabbits and have gotten tapeworms a few times. Setapp ios. Another member said that although her dogs hunt rabbits, they've only gotten worms once.
Better safe than sorry?
3 Natural Ways to Deworm a Raw Fed Dog
1. Olewo Carrots
Our dogs have a natural dewormer as part of their diet. Five days a week, I add hydrated Olewo carrots to their meals. I give our dogs Olewo carrots to help with…

- diarrhea
- digestive issues
- dry and itchy skin
- dull coat
- worms and parasites.
2. Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth
If I had run out of the carrots (I need to place an order) I can use the food grade diatomaceous earth for 30 days. Diatomaceous earth is a fine white powder that is composed of the fossilized shells of tiny teeny algae that sharp allowing it kills parasites (and fleas) by cutting them up and dehydrating their bodies.
For dogs over 55 lbs, give them 1 tablespoon daily for up to 30 days to kill worms. Source: EarthClinic.com
Or you can use a product specifically made for pets; which is so much easier. I recommend Urth Pet, which offers several diatomaceous earth options in their line, including one for joints, one for digestion, and one for deworming pets.
3. Apple Cider Vinegar, Ground Pumpkin Seeds, Grated Carrot
One of my raw feeding group members suggested apple cider vinegar and finely ground pumpkin seeds. She shared that the worms are weakened by the ground pumpkin seeds and apple cider vinegar. The coarsely grated carrots carry the worms out of the dogs' system.

Did My Dogs Get Worms from the Rabbit?
I don't think that they did, but I'm not certain. Cosmo got worms when he went missing for seven days and vomited up what looked like roundworms upon his return – thank you, Cosmo – and then he was fine.
Tapeworms, which come from swallowing fleas, break off in segments and unless they're on the outside of poop, or I dig through the poop (so not happening), they won't turn up unless I have our dogs' poop tested.
Since they are already on a routine that includes a dewormer, I chose to continue with the same routine. Rodrigo, who I believe did most of the eating, did experience some digestive issues for a day – diarrhea and loose stool – but was otherwise okay.
