During the period of January 1995 to January 1997, Babesia canis infections were diagnosed in 127 dogs, 65 of them had stayed in foreign countries where Dermacentor reticulatus is endemic, namely France, Austria and Hungary, or in the area Offenburg/Kehl/Freiburg i. Breisgau (Germany). Two dogs being positive for Babesia never had left Germany before and had not been in the region Offenburg/Kehl/Freiburg i. Breisgau. Concurrent tick infestations were reported for all of the 67 dogs. For 10 dogs which had travelled to Hungary and France the ticks were diagnosed as D. reticulatus. In Germany, ecological conditions are suitable for D. reticulatus and Babesia canis. Therefore, as a consequence of the spreading of these parasites the emergence of new endemic foci has to be expected.
在1995年1月至1997年1月期间，共诊断出127只犬感染犬巴贝斯虫，其中65只犬曾前往篦子硬蜱（Dermacentor reticulatus）的流行国家，即法国、奥地利和匈牙利，或德国奥芬堡/凯尔/弗赖堡地区（Freiburg i. Breisgau）。有两只犬巴贝斯虫检测呈阳性，但此前从未离开过德国，也未曾去过奥芬堡/凯尔/弗赖堡地区。所有67只犬均报告有蜱虫寄生。在前往匈牙利和法国的10只犬中，蜱虫被诊断为篦子硬蜱。在德国，生态条件适合篦子硬蜱和犬巴贝斯虫生存。因此，由于这些寄生虫的传播，预计会出现新的地方病疫源地。
