Faecal Screening Kits for Dogs & Cats
A worm count test is suitable for all species of animals, including dogs. The collection kits are standard for all animals; however, the screening process varies slightly depending on the species. We will take care of this upon receipt of the sample in our laboratory.
The purpose of screening is to determine if there is an internal parasite burden of mature, egg-laying worms at the time the sample was taken. If present, the species of parasite will be identified so that targeted and appropriate treatment can be given. Our worm count test is comprehensive, providing accurate identification as well as quantitative results for each species of parasite where appropriate.
A one-day sample of the first faecal motion of the day is required for this screen. The kits come with full instructions, and we recommend that they are read and followed exactly to ensure reliable results.
This kit is for one animal and includes:
- One recyclable padded envelope, made with 60% recycled material
- Free tracked return 24hr postage
- One white paper laboratory request form and test and instruction sheet
- One clear recyclable sample collection box in resealable write-on panelled bag
- One biodegradable second sealable bag
- One biodegradable natural wood sampling spoon
Worm counts hold significant importance in the context of dog health. Regular monitoring using worm counts enables early detection and treatment of internal parasites such as roundworms, hookworms, threadworms and whipworms. In addition, worm count tests can confirm if your current treatment programme is working. High worm burdens can lead to a range of issues, including weight loss, poor coat condition, diarrhoea, and even life-threatening complications.
If running a worm count for dogs or other companion animal, the screen will identify and quantify of all species present within the family groups of:
- Ascarids
- Hookworms
- Whipworms
- Threadworms
- All species of cestodes (Tapeworms*)
- Protozoa – Coccidia
The worm count test, as standard, also reports on:
- Undigested lipids (qualitative analysis)
- Undigested microscopic food particles (qualitative analysis)
*Tapeworms are intermittent shedders and do not always show on a worm egg screen. If present, the species will be identified. As they may not have been present when the sample was taken, it is advisable to use regular tapeworm specific treatment.
This screen requires a 1 day sample and comes with complete sample collection instructions.
Free after test advice is available with all our screens.
This kit includes free 24 hour TRACKED return postage! No need to apply a stamp to the return envelope, and you can fully track the sample’s progress back to the lab.
