Abstract: For the period from 2010 to 2012, carried out research on study of morbidity dogs babesia in Naro-Fominsk district of the Moscow region and Kamyshlov district of Sverdlovsk region . Study of issues of epizootology babesia dogs for the period 2010–2012. showed massive spread of the disease in the studied area, however, the number of cases babesia dogs in the same period of time was different. Percentage of morbidity surveyed dogs varies from 76,6 % to 97.5 % and depends on the age of animals, season of the year, the climatic conditions of the region and year. So, in 2010, there were 298 cases babesia. The largest number of patients was reported in the month of may and amounted to 75 cases, and fewer lesions Babesia celebrated in November.Low threshold morbidity was observed in November and in 2012 the least number of patients, there was already in July. The increase of cases of babesia in November can be explained by a long warm autumn and high humidity this period.As for 2012, the highest number of cases babesia (123) – registered in the month of may. Sufficiently high level of morbidity compared with previous years also noted April and August 2012.When research was established that a change in the number of cases babesia and the peak of activity of ticks is primarily related to climatic factors. In this regard, we note that when considering the issues of epizootology бабезиоза dogs we have found that the high interest morbidity dogs correspond to the ambient temperature in the range of 12–13 C till 21 degrees C. From this it follows that they are the most optimal for the attack ticks-carriers of the animals.Thus, it is established that for all years of studies (2010–2012 гг.) the tendency of growth of cases of бабезиозом dogs, the study of seasonal dynamics of бабезиоза dogs in different years, it can be noted that the epizootic curve of each year has its own characteristics, even within the same district.
