Toxocariasis is an illness of humans caused by the dog roundworm (Toxocara canis) and, less frequently, the cat roundworm (Toxocara cati). [1] These are the most common intestinal roundworms of dogs, coyotes, wolves and foxes and domestic cats, respectively. [2]

This parasite is very common in puppies and somewhat less common in adult dogs. [4] In adult dogs, infection is usually asymptomatic but may be characterized by diarrhea. By contrast, untreated infection with Toxocara canis can be fatal in puppies, causing diarrhea, vomiting, pneumonia, enlarged abdomen, flatulence, poor growth rate, and other ...
In particular, dogs in larger holdings, young animals, dogs in contact with other animals, hunting dogs, strays, and animals fed raw meat products are at higher risk of infection.

[14] Various mites cause skin problems such ...
