1. Species reported in dogs and cats in <strong>Canada</strong><br />
A number of species have been reported in dogs and cats in <strong>Canada</strong>. Since many pets<br />
accompany their owners when they travel, it is now not unusual <strong>to</strong> also identify exotic<br />
species from time <strong>to</strong> time. The following list does not, however, include these exceptional<br />
cases, but only those species that are indigenous <strong>to</strong> our region.<br />
