“…We believe that D. caninum and Taenia spp. were the most frequent parasites since, despite the extreme climatic conditions of Mexicali Valley, these parasites fulfill most of their biological cycle within the intermediate and definitive host [ 17 ]. T. canis was also one of the most frequent parasites detected, this nematode has a thick shell that enables egg survival in the external environment for many years and confers them resistance to the harsh environmental conditions in soil [ 18 ].…”

“…Irrespective of the results of direct microscopy, the samples were cultured on Sabouraud's Dextrose Agar (SDA) containing 0.5 mg/mL chloramphenicol and 500 mg/L cycloheximide. The plates incubated at room temperature (25-30°C), and examined daily for fungal growth for up to four weeks (11). Suspected fungal colonies were sub-cultured on SDA slants to obtain pure cultures, which were then sub-cultured on Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA) (Oxoid, UK) to facilitate distinctive spore formation.…”

“…The zoophilic dermatophytes may precipitate zoonoses in humans with these human infections resulting most often from direct contact with an infected animal or through indirect contact with contaminated environments (10), such as fungus-bearing hair and scales from infected animals. According to Akpolat et al, (11), the prevalence of superficial mycoses caused by zoophilic dermatophytes is significant worldwide, especially in the tropical countries with warm and humid climate, crowded living and poor sanitary conditions (12).…”

“…Soil contact is an identified risk factor [1]. This may be due to GIT parasite-positive dogs with unrestricted movement defecating in the soil, contaminating it with parasite eggs and oocysts [25]. This could favor zoonotic transmission and the (re-)infection of other dogs [19,26].…”
