If your dog eats worm-infested feces or steps in feces and then licks its paws, it can become infected with whipworms. They can also be infected with these worms by eating food or drinking water that is contaminated with whipworm eggs. Your dog can even become infected with whipworm when it picks up worm-infested soil and then licks itself.
