Abstract:
The purpose of the present study is to study the activity of the municipal shelters for stray dogs in Kazanlak and Stara Zagora for the period 2014-2020 and to make proposals for controlling the stray dog populations. The object of the study is the Municipal Shelters for Stray Dogs in Stara Zagora and Kazanlak for the period 2014-2020. From the research done, it was found that in the Municipal shelter for stray dogs in the city of Stara Zagora, about 340 dogs are captured per year, and in 2020 (the year with restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic) there are only 267 dogs.

Canine leishmaniosis (CanL) is a chronic, systemic, and often severe disease. The main causative agent of CanL is a protozoan parasite, Leishmania infantum, with phlebotomine sand flies acting as vectors. In Europe and other continents, L. infantum is also responsible for leishmaniosis in other animals, such as cats, horses, and humans. In Portugal, animal and human leishmaniosis is endemic, and high prevalence levels of infections and disease have been reported in dogs.

Abstract A stray dog problem is not necessarily due to animals not owned. In fact, it can be caused by owned dogs allowed to roam and reproduce freely around the whole territory. And if the authorities limit themselves to the policy of catching the dogs and keeping them in shelters, the problem will never be solved. Instead, the shelters will soon be very overcrowded, with tremendous animal welfare issues for the imprisoned animals and at a very high cost for the public.

Abstract:
Human–dog interactions have a positive effect on human sociality and health. The relationship with dogs helps humans to cope with stress during an emotionally challenging period, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. During this period, a growing global interest in pets has been registered, including the volunteering for shelter/stray dog protection. However, a considerable increase of human dysfunctional interventions toward dogs has been observed in Southern Italy. In this study, we investigated the psychological characteristics of humans volunteering at animal shelter or engaged in stray dog prote

Dogs and cats are susceptible to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). During the pandemic, several studies have been performed on owned cats and dogs, whereas limited data are available on the exposure to stray animals. The objective of this study was to investigate the exposure to SARS-CoV-2 of feral cats and kennel dogs in northeastern Italy, through serological and molecular methods. From May 2021 to September 2022, public health veterinary services collected serum, oropharyngeal, and rectal swab samples from 257 free-roaming dogs newly introduced to shelters, and f

The article is devoted to the analysis of the problem of stray animals from the point of view of humanitarian expertise. The problem of helping stray animals is acute in many countries. Russia, as a country with a cold climate, is no exception. The average life span of an animal that has lost its owner does not exceed two years. Enthusiasts try to help animals that have fallen into difficult conditions: they feed them, put them in shelters, treat them, vaccinate them, arrange for overexposure or look for new owners. One of these private shelters is located in Koltsovo. In 2020, the animal reha

Abstract Parasites are among the most common pathogens recorded in dogs. High prevalence rates are usually reported in stray and shelter dogs, as these animals are less likely to be tested and treated. In this study a survey was carried out on intestinal and lung parasites of stray dogs at the moment of the admission in a shelter in Central Italy. In the period June 2014-June 2015, 262 individual faecal samples were examined. Twelve parasitic taxa were detected. Helminths were more prevalent than protozoa (61.8% and 25.6%, respectively). Ancylostomatidae showed the higher prevalence (40.5%), f

We also explored whether dogs being qualitatively perceived by experts as disinterested in the food would spend greater time ABM (experts blind to actual inactivity l
