Canine Parasites and Parasitic Diseases - Grand Format

Canine Parasites and Parasitic Diseases offers a concise summary on parasites affecting dogs, including distribution, epidemiology, life cycle, morphology, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, prophylaxis, and therapeutic measures.

Authorship is limited to veterinarians who have published many scientific parasitological articles and have considerable diagnostic experience in parasitology. The chapters are presented in a consistent and logical format with extensive use of photographs, illustrations, and information boxes, so veterinarians and students can quickly find answers to questions they have related to parasites and parasitic diseases in dogs.
