Ancylostoma caninum, a blood-sucking parasite that typically infects dogs and cats, has emerged as a growing cause of enteric infections in humans. In addition to its veterinary impact, this species can cause cutaneous larvae migrans and enteric diseases, including eosinophilic enteritis, cases of dermatitis associated with Ancylostoma caninum have also been recorded, this situation underlines the importance of understanding and managing the spread of this parasite, which It affects both animals and humans, with implications for public health. For this reason, the objective of this work is to determine the prevalence of Ancylostoma caninum infection in domestic dogs treated at the “La Vet” veterinary center, August 2022. For this reason, an observational and cross-sectional study was developed, with a sample of 150 canine patients cared for. Concluding that the prevalence of Ancylostoma caninum infection was 72 %. It was also observed that the majority of dogs were cross-breed (88 %), 74 % were of adult age, 51.3% of the dogs were males and 48.7% were females, the majority of dogs cared for came from urban environments (88.7%). When studying the relationship, it was observed that breed presents a statistically significant association with Ancylostoma caninum infection (p=0.006, OR=3.9).
