We conducted the survey on intestinal nematode, mainly Toxocara canis, and cestode infections in stray puppies aged less than 5 months in Ibaraki Prefecture for 8 years from 1988 to 1995. The rate of T. canis infection stayed almost unchanged for the 8 years and ranged from 72.2 to 85.4%. Of the total 916 dogs, 732 (79.9%) harboured with T. canis. The average rates of other helminthic infections showed 24.6 (Diphylidium caninum), 2.5 (Trichuris vulpis), 1.2 (Ancylostoma caninum) and 0.7% (Spirometra erinaceieuropaei) , respectively.
