The studied animals were grouped based on the age (< 1 year, 1–3 years and >3 years), sex, breed and region. Results: Thirty six out of 126 referred dogs (28.57%) were positive for external ectoparasites. The most common ectoparasites were Heterodoxus spinigera , which were recorded on 11 dogs (8.73%). Rhipicephalus sanguineus, Sarcoptes scabiei , Otodectes cynotis , Xenopsylla cheopis, Cetenocephalides canis, Cetenocephalides felis , Hip­pobosca sp . and myiasis (L3 of Lucilia sp . ) were identified on 9 (7.14%), 7 (5.56%), 6 (4.76%), 3 (2.38%), 3 (2.38%), 2 (1.59%), 2 (1.59%) and one (0.79%) of the studied dogs respectively.
