Canine helminthoses in Udgir: a preliminary prevalence study

Year 2018, Volume: 2 Issue: 2, 20 - 23, 24.12.2018

Abstract

Objective: To note the prevalence of gastrointestinal parasites in domestic and stray dogs of the Udgir local area

Materials and Methods: A coprological investigation of gastrointestinal
helminthes of dogs in udgir area was done in sample size of 216 dogs over
period of 10 months

Results:

An
overall prevalence to the tune of 31.65% was noted. The major helminthes
parasites recovered were Ancylostoma caninum (66.67%), Ancylostoma
braziliense
(4.35%), Toxocara canis (26.08%) and Dipylidium
caninum
(2.89%). There were non-significant differences in age wise and sex
wise distribution of helminthes infecting dogs of the area.



Conclusion:
