Out of 685 dog faecal deposits collected from the road sides and public places from Ismailia city,500 (73%) harboured parasite ova, oocysts and/or cysts. From the 500 infested samples; 49%, 34.4%, 14% and 2.6% showed one type, two types, three types and four types of parasite ova, oocysts or cysts respectively. The helminth infestation rates were; 32.1% of Toxascaris leonina, 25.5% of Toxocara canis: 17,5% of Dipylidium caninum, 10.2% of Taenia sp., 0.15% of spirometra sp < /em>.; 8.5% Heterophyes heterophyes and 1.3% Hookworm. The percentages of protozoan infestations were; 12.8 of Isospora spp., 2.3 of sarcocystis sp.; 3.8 of Cryptospordium sp < /em>. and 8.3 of Giardia sp. This work indicates the prevalence of important causes of parasitic zoonoses in Egypt environment and emphasizes the importance of the application of dog control measures and excluding dogs from public places
