Resumo
The immunization process is an important practice in the veterinary clinical routine, being dependent on the immune system and influenced by several factors, such as the presence of ectoparasites. Therefore, the objective of the present study was to evaluate the pre-vaccination leukocyte parameters in puppies with ticks. A retrospective study was carried out through the evaluation of clinical files and hematological data of 30 clinically healthy puppies divided into two groups, G1 (n=15) composed of animals without ticks and G2 (n=15) by dogs with ticks. The G2 group had significant changes in total leukocytes and neutrophils. Therefore, it was concluded that the presence of ticks induced leukocyte alterations in dogs submitted to pre-vaccine clinical evaluation.(AU)
