Abstract
Fifty-five dogs, 6 to 18 months old, from 11 areas of New Zealand were examined for gastro-intestinal helminths. Thirty-eight (69.1%) were infected. Twenty-one (38.2%) had Toxocara canis, 20 (36.4%) Trichuris vulpis, 20 (36.4%) Uncinaria stenocephala, 3 (5.5%) Toxuscaris leonina, 3 (5.5%) Dipylidium caninum and 1 (1.8%) Taenia sp. Helminth infections were less frequent and populations were smaller in females than in males.
