[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 330302, member: 1963"] I'm aware of the hydatid issue (an intermediate stage of tapeworm development where the growing worms become encysted in various tissues). Hydatids are not an issue in the US other than in deer, rabbits, and squirrels. The lamb my dog eats is sourced from Australia and New Zealand. Here in the US, the most common way for dogs and cats to get tapeworms is for them to eat an infected flea (fleas are the most common vector for tapes in the US) by accident. That type of tapeworm does not form hydatid cysts. [/QUOTE]
