Under normal circumstances, dogs will not infect parasites by licking people. Whether it is external parasites or internal parasites, dog parasites can infect humans. However, parasites on dogs can be transmitted through feces and hair, and will not be transmitted by dogs licking people. If the owner handles feces outside, or does not wash hands in time after close contact with dogs, it is easy to be infected with parasites.

Diseases that can be transmitted by dogs licking people:

1. If you have a wound on your hand, you may get rabies after being licked by a dog.

2. There are a lot of germs in the dog's mouth, which is likely to infect humans. The symptoms are generally vomiting and diarrhea, and sometimes even cause the body temperature to rise. Elderly people or children who are frail and sick should not touch it. If the resistance is weak, the consequences will be more serious.

Zoonotic parasites:

1. Ascaris

Roundworms, one of the most common intestinal parasites, are found in dogs and cats, and most puppies and kittens have them. They can be transmitted to humans, with children at the highest risk of contracting roundworms.

2. Hookworm

Hookworms are another common parasite that can also infest dogs and cats. This is also a zoonotic parasite that can be transmitted from pets to humans.
