对572只狗的粪便、270只狗的血液样本和27只狗的尸检材料的检查证实了这样一种观点，即不列颠群岛的赛狗严重感染了一系列蠕虫寄生虫。以犬复孔绦虫和狭头钩虫最为常见。常见的还有：犬弓蛔虫、狮弓蛔虫和狐狸鞭虫。1只犬携带血管圆线虫。在尸检时检查的27只动物中，有5只感染了奥斯勒丝虫，5.6%的血液样本含有不明微丝蚴，可能是未知的倍瓣线虫属。感染在整个人群中的分布并不均匀;变化与宿主的性别和年龄以及一年中的季节有关。蛔虫和钩虫感染的患病率随着宿主年龄的增加而下降，并且更多的雄性犬比雌性犬具有专利犬弓蛔虫感染。在为期13个月的研究中，注意到狮子弓蛔虫和U。粪卵产量在冬季达到高峰，春季和初夏记录到的数值较低。[AS]
Examination of faeces from 572 dogs, blood samples from 270 animals and post-mortem material from 27 dogs confirmed the view that racing greyhounds in the British Isles are heavily infected with a range of helminth parasites. Dipylidium caninum and Uncinaria stenocephala were most common. Also frequently encountered were: Toxocara canis, Toxascaris leonina and Trichuris vulpis. One dog harboured Angiostrongylus vasorum. 5 of 27 animals examined at post mortem were infected with Filaroides osleri and 5.6% of the blood samples contained unidentified microfilariae, possible of an unknown Dipetalonema species. The infections were not evenly distributed throughout the population; variations were associated with the sex and age of the host, and the season of the year. The prevalence of ascarid and hookworm infections declined with the increasing age of the host, and more male dogs harboured patent Toxocara canis infections than females. Seasonal variations during the 13 months of the study were noted for Toxascaris leonina and U. stenocephala; the faecal egg output peaked during the winter months, with lower values recorded in the spring and early summer.
