Summary:Selected parameters of non-specific cell-mediated immunity were evaluated in seven dogs with malasseziosis (Malassezia pachydermatis) complicated with a secondary bacterial infection Staphylococcus intermedius, Staphylococcus haemolyticus).Clinical disease persisted for two to three months.
