Once you stop seeing any worms coming out of your dog's anus, this means that she is now recovering from the infestation. As long as you stop seeing dead worms in dog poop, or live ones coming out of your dog's anus, your pooch should be on the road to recovery. And, if your pup isn't coughing, that's a good sign, too.
