Describe the epidemiology of canine herpes
Present worldwide. Kennels have high rates of infection, and many dogs will be found to have life-long latent states of infection
Canines of what age are at highest risk for disease with canine herpes?
1-3 weeks old
(transmission of body fluids through droplets/aerosol)
What are the clinical signs of canine herpes
Vary widely- depression, hypothermia, painful crying, anorexia, respiratory distress, soft stool, nasal discharge
Pseudorabies (Mad Itch/Aujezsky’s Disease) in dogs is associated with what activity?
Hunting feral pigs or feeding infected meat to dogs
What are the clinical signs of Pseudorabies (Mad Itch/Aujezsky’s Disease) in dogs?
Pruritis (itchiness), jaw and pharynx paralysis followed by drooling, signs simulate rabies however they don’t become aggressive to other animals of humans
Pseudorabies is caused by which type of virus?
herpesvirus
Infectious Canine Hepatitis (CAV 1) is caused by which type of virus?
Adenovirus
What is the common name for Infectious Canine Tracheobronchitis (CAV2)
Kennel cough
**Caused by adenovirus)
What are some defining characteristics of kennel cough?
- Dry hacking cough
- typically seen in crowded conditions such as shelters or daycares
- develops 5-10 days after exposure to infected dogs
Which canine virus causes the following:
- Warts seen in the mouth or paws
- bad breath
- can lead to difficulty eating and drinking if clusters become too large
- warts may induce cancer and require surgery
Canine Papilomavirus
Which canine virus causes the following:
- highly contagious disease that affects dogs of all ages
- puppies less than 6 months are most susceptible
- CS: fever, depression, lethargy, anorexia, bloody vomit/diarrhea
- can cause myocarditis in puppies (used to be more common, now more rare because of passive immunity from mom)
Canine parvovirus 2 infection
Which canine virus causes the following:
- causes mild enteritis and respiratory disease
- can be a co-infection with parvo and exacerbate the infection
- transmitted through contact with oral secretions or infected feces
Canine coronavirus (CCV)
Which canine virus causes the following:
- disease is highly contagious and often fatal
- virus is shed in all bodily secretions
- immunosuppression is the dominant effect of infection
- recovery from infection leads to life long immunity
- CS: fever, gunky eyes, nasal discharge, bronchitis, coughing, gastroenteritis, can cause CNS signs like gum smacking, incoordnation, muscle tremors (chorea)
Canine distemper (CDV)
What type of virus causes canine distemper?
Paramyxovirus
Which canine virus causes the following:
- unstable in environment and exhibits antigenic shift and drift with many serotypes
- respiratory signs
- greyhounds more susceptible? they die quickly or something
Canine influenza
Which canine virus causes the following:
- virus is unstable in environment
- CS: inappetence, CNS symptoms, restlessness, hydrophobic, hypersensitive, unable to swallow saliva

Which feline virus is classified by the following:
- Part of the feline upper respiratory-conjunctival disease complex
- respiratory type: dyspnea, tongue, gingivia, and hard palate ulcers, affects mucosal cells
- lymphoreticular type: affects younger kittens 4-10 weeks old, limping, stiffness, soreness, affects synovial tissue
- virulent systemic: spreads via fomites, resp disease progresses causing vascular injury, edema, fever, ulcerative dermaitits

Feline leukemia virus
What type of virus causes feline leukemia and feline immunodeficiency virus?
retrovirus
Which feline virus is classified by the following:
- seen mostly in male cats (cause they fight)
- CS: enlargement of lymph nodes, reduction in LN, anemia, neutropenia, lymphopenia, uveitis, glomerulonephiritis
- can lead to secondary clinical syndromes associated with immunosuppression
Feline immunodeficiency virus
