The diagnosis, epidemiology, treatment and control of parasites afflicting the canine are fully discussed in the first ever text dedicated solely to the subject. Each parasite is presented by zoological classification, with clear, concise exposition detailing the life history, injury to the host, role as a vector to the disease and representative hazards to the human population. More than 200 never before published visuals, including 72 full colour photographs make this an atlas of canine parasitology that will be referred to time and time again.
