The aim of this study was to measure the hematological parameters in dogs infected by Ancylostoma spp. Fecal and blood samples of 108 naturally infected dogs were used, without age and sex distinction. The animals used in this study were divided in three groups according to the parasite load (eggs per gram of feces): Group A (1 to 500 eggs); Group B (501 to 1000 eggs) and Group C (above 1000 eggs). For the coproparasitological diagnosis, it was carried out the Willis-Mollay technique and to quantify the parasite load of the positives, the Mcmaster technique was used. Through the hemogram was possible to determine the counting of the different blood cells. The main alterations observed were anemia, thrombocytopenia and eosinophilia presented, in 43.5%, 47.2% and 19.4% of the animals, respectively. Based on the results observed, it is concluded that Ancylostoma spp. is related to the development of anemia, eosinophilia and thrombocytopenia in dogs.
