Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to determine the presence of antibodies for Toxoplasma gondii in dogs from Lages and Balneário Camboriú, Brazil, using blood samples from 400 dogs.
- About 22.3% of the dogs tested positive for T. gondii, with higher prevalence in mixed-breed dogs, those with street access, and those fed homemade diets.
- The findings suggest adult dogs had higher seropositivity, potentially due to past exposure, and there was a notable association with previous contact with cats.
