Parasites in dogs – prevention and control according to the questionnaire analysis. The aim of the study was to determine the extent of knowledge of dog owners on the incidence of parasitic diseases, their negative consequences and preventive measures. The research material was based on data from 162 anonymous questionnaires. The study was conducted in the period between July and October 2015, among owners of dogs living in different regions of Poland. Analysis of the results showed that most respondents were aware of the dangers posed by the development of parasitic diseases in their animals, how ever the extent of their knowledge was insuffi cient and required further deepening. Unfortunately, 6% of owners do not use any form of antiparasitic prophylaxis. Less than half of the respondents declared that they regularly pick up their dog’s waste. More than half of the surveyed owners were not aware of the type and programme of antiparasitic prevention used by the vets, or the necessary changes in the dog’s pharmacological treatment. The largest group of owners (32% of respondents) used the prevention of ectoparasites twice a year. Nearly half of the respondents used antiparasitic drops as a precaution against ectoparasitic dis eases, while 33% used antiparasitic collars. 40% of respondents seeking to increase the effectiveness of protection against parasitic infestations applied two different forms of treatment simultaneously. The results of the questionnaire surveys indicated, according to specialists recommendations, that there was insuffi cient frequency of using antiparasitic treatment against endoparasites. Single deworming was performed by 41% of respondents while the smallest group of respondents (12%) did it three times.
