Abstract EN
Canine faeces are an important source of pathogens for the pet population, for dog owners and for the community in general.
A total of 100 faecal samples taken from dogs, were examined for helminth eggs.
80 % of dogs examined are parasitized.
Toxocara can is and Ancylostoma caninum were the most commonly observed parasites.
T.
canis was observed with a prevalence of 68 % in the El Kala region, while in the region of Guelma, A.
caninum were predominant with a rate of 71%.
Dipylidium caninum and Trichuris were present but with low proportions especially in the region of Guelma.
The climatic conditions seem to play a role in the excretion of helminth eggs, while the age plays a primordial role in particular for I canis as well as for A.
caninum.
The absence of conscience of the owners of dogs and the lack of participation of the veterinarian’ role increase the risk of the parasitism of these animals and consequently for the public health in particular our children in the Northeast of Algeria.
