FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 24 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM | HEMISFAIR BALLROOM 2 ZOETIS – HACK, SNORT, COUGH…GASP! PROTECTING DOGS AND COMMUNITIES FROM CANINE RESPIRATORY DISEASE Jason Stull, VMD, MPVM, PhD, DACVPM Canine infectious respiratory disease complex (CIRDC) is a highly contagious cough caused by a number of bacterial and viral pathogens. One of the newest members of CIRDC, canine influenza virus (CIV), has become established in North America and this has resulted in large high-profile canine outbreaks. CIRDC outbreaks often have greatest impact in canine group settings where many dogs come together, such as boarding facilities and veterinary clinics. Outbreaks of CIRDC (most notably CIV) commonly result in many sick dogs, some of which can develop severe illness, and this can have financial and reputational repercussions on canine businesses. This talk will review our current knowledge of CIRDC, with an emphasis on CIV, including diagnosis and prevention of this high- impact disease. Key tips will be provided to allow for early recognition and control, targeted prevention, and veterinary, owner, and community awareness and education.
