There is a wide range of nematode species of zoonotic potential
that can infect pet dogs. The present study was conducted to detect
nematode infestation in pet dogs in Lahore. Two types of nematodes
were identified (Toxocara canis and Ancylostoma caninum) in fecal
samples of 300 pet dogs from January 2011 to June 2011 by various
techniques . The prevalence of T.canis was 11.33% and 8.33% for
A.caninum by Direct Smear Method. By Flotation Technique prevalence
of T.canis was 14.33% and 12.3% for A.caninum and by Sedimentation
Technique the prevalence of T.canis and A.caninum was 11.66% and
10% respectively. To investigate the effect of physical factors on
prevalence of nematodes, month-wise mean temperature and mean
monthly relative humidity was also analysed. The results of study
revealed that temperature has a positive relationship with the
prevalence of infection. But the percent prevalence of both types
of nematodes did not show any direct relation with relative
humidity.As pet dogs are the reservoir of transmission of diseases
to humans specially children, so there is a need to control of
nematode infections by establishing hygienic conditions and regular
clinical examination
