Can my dog pass the infection on to other pets? It depends on the species of lungworm that is causing the infection.

If it is Crenostoma vulpis, the infection cannot be passed directly from one dog to another because the parasite needs that intermediate host (snail or slug) in order to complete its life cycle.
