Emerging zoonotic vector-borne pathogens in European dogs: What to watch out for in practice

Increased pet travel and importation of rescued dogs is leading to an associated increase in risk of exotic vector-borne parasites and vectors establishing in the UK. The expanding distribution of a range of vector-borne diseases also makes it more likely that exotic parasites may be encountered while pets are on holiday abroad. It is vital that veterinary professionals are able to accurately advise clients in relation to pet travel based on the latest parasite distribution data to minimise health risks posed to both pet and owner. Vigilance in imported pets for relevant clinical signs and appropriate parasite diagnostic testing are also vital both for individual health and wider UK biosecurity.

Endoparasites: From 101 to the clinical frontline
This webinar aims to rapidly get your scientific knowledge up to speed by refreshing your understanding of the key helminth and protozoal infections of cats and dogs that you come into regular contact with through patents presented at clinics. The focus will then shift to parasite management and control, considering available diagnostics and treatment options, together with best husbandry practices that can be utilised by the pet owner in consultation with the veterinarian. The significance of parasite infections for the individual pet as well as other cats and dogs within their community will be critiqued, as will the potential for human infection through known zoonoses.
