Abstract
Introduction. At the present, the pathology of skin in dogs occupies a significant place among diseases of the different genesis and is an urgent issue that has not been adequately researched by specialists in veterinary medicine. The manifestation and diagnosis of these diseases of dogs is not fully understood, therefore, diagnostic research on them presents some difficulties, and this issue is relevant and needs further resolution. The goal of the work was to develop modern methodological approaches for the diagnosis of dermatitis of parasitic origin in dogs. Material and methods. The objects for research were dogs of all ages, breeds and sex groups with pathologies of the skin. Diagnostic tests for the detection of pathogens of parasitic diseases were carried out using general parasitological methods. Results of research and discussion. In the structural analysis of various types of skin diseases, it was found that the most common among dog populations are skin lesions caused by parasitic pathogens, namely flea allergic dermatitis (23.14%), dermatitis caused by parasitization of the Sarcoptes canis and Demodex canis agents (an average of 36%, 42%). Otodectoz was registered in 18.26% of animals. An algorithm for diagnosis of parasitic etiology dermatitis in dogs was developed, which included (anamnesis, clinical studies (general and skin studies, diagnostic and differential research, resolution of the final diagnosis). Anamnesis included the breed, age, and sex of an animal. Clinical studies included general clinical signs of the parasitic diseases, accompanied by skin lesions, skin and wool, and determined the presence of primary skin lesions. Diagnostic studies included special parasitological studies to detect a pathogen, differential –provided diseases that have similar clinical signs with dermatitis of parasitic etiology. Conclusions and prospects for further research. Conclusions and perspectives of further research. An algorithm for the diagnosis of parasitic origin dermatitis, which includes the main current stages of diagnostic research: anamnesis, clinical studies (general and skin studies), diagnostic criteria, differential criteria and the establishment of the final diagnosis, is developed and implemented.
