Abstract

Intestinal helminthes represent a big sotial and economic problem for humans and animals. Infections affecting almost 2 million people worldwide. The risk to human health is very high because of long life cycle of the parasite, and high contamination environments. Faecal samples were collected on the municipalities of Kikinda on the rural type of breeding animals. Faecal samples were examined by the Loerintz's method of concentration helminths eggs. Identification was performed on the basis of the microscopic appearance and size of the eggs. We egzamined 30 animals, and we found 14 positive, with a prevalence of 46.67%. Monoinfection was detected in 8 dogs (prevalence 57.14% 8/14), and multiple infections present in 6 dogs (prevalence 42.85 % 6/14). In order to reduce the incidence of intestinal parasites in dogs need regular checks on animals by a veterinarian, as well as continuing education owner.
