Zoonotic endoparasites in dogs from the Bosnian-Podrinje canton, Bosnia and Herzegovina
More than 30 dog parasite species have been identified in Bosnia and Herzegovina so far, and half of these are zoonotic. The aim of the study was to investigate the occurrence of parasitic infections in dogs from Bosnian-podrinje canton with a focus on ...
