The most complete and accessible postgraduate certificate in Canine Vectorial Diseases in the online educational scenario, with the quality and security of the world's largest online university in Spanish"

Vector-borne diseases, i.e., hematophagous arthropods, are a group of different entities produced by bacteria, viruses, protozoa and helminths. They are considered emerging (and sometimes non-emerging) in daily canine clinical practice. These diseases produce a great diversity of clinical pictures, they can be asymptomatic or can cause the death of the animal. 

Co-infections by these pathogens are also frequent in dogs that have been exposed to the different biological vectors involved. 

Within this module, other diseases not associated with vector transmission will be addressed. This is the case of toxoplasmosis and brucellosis, diseases of parasitic and bacterial origin, respectively. These diseases generate chronic conditions, and, in the case of brucellosis, the dog is a source of infection for humans. We must be aware of these pathologies and their potential impact on the health of the owners in order to generate prevention measures.
