Pale gums and weakness are common signs of anemia.

Some dogs experience significant weight loss, bloody diarrhea, dull and dry hair coat or failure to grow properly with hookworm infection.

It is not uncommon for young puppies to die from severe hookworm infections.

dogs may also exhibit coughing in severe cases.

A large number of hookworms can cause inflammation in the dog's intestine, as well as a life-threatening decrease in the number of red bloods cells (called anemia). Anemia is most common in puppies, but can occur in adult dogs.
