In the UK, ''Uncinaria stenocephala'' is commonly found in greyhounds, hounds, sheepdogs and other country dogs, but is relatively non-pathogenic. It is a plug-feeder, causing a protein-losing enteropathy. Heavy infections leads to intermittent diarrhoea, causing reduced growth-rate. | In the UK, ''Uncinaria stenocephala'' is commonly found in greyhounds, hounds, sheepdogs and other country dogs, but is relatively non-pathogenic.
