Infectious canine hepatitis (ICH) is an acute liver infection in dogs caused by Canine mastadenovirus A, formerly called Canine adenovirus 1 (CAV-1). Canine mastadenovirus A also causes disease in wolves, coyotes, and bears, and encephalitis in foxes. [1] The virus is spread
Canine herpesvirus is an infectious disease that is a common cause of death in puppies less than three weeks old. [7] Pseudorabies (Morbus Aujeszky) is an infectious disease that primarily affects swine, but can also cause a fatal disease in dogs with signs similar to rabies. [8] Canine minute virus is an infectious disease that can cause ...
Transmission electron micrograph of parainfluenza virus. Two intact particles and free filamentous nucleocapsid. Kennel cough (also "canine infectious respiratory disease" (CIRD), "canine infectious respiratory disease complex" (CIRDC) or "canine infectious tracheobronchitis" (CIT)) is an upper respiratory infection affecting dogs. [1]
Dogs with CPV are at risk of intussusception, a condition where part of the intestine prolapses into another part. [3] Three to four days following infection, the virus is shed in the feces for up to three weeks, and the dog may remain an asymptomatic carrier and shed the virus periodically. [24]

Dogs are susceptible to various diseases; similarly to humans, they can have diabetes, epilepsy, cancer, or arthritis. Timely vaccination can reduce the risk and severity of an infection. The most commonly recommended viruses to vaccinate dogs against are: A rabid dog. Rabies; CDV (canine distemper) CAV-2 (canine hepatitis virus or adenovirus-2)
Coronavirus infection of the intestinal villi makes the cells more susceptible to parvovirus infection. This causes a much more severe disease than either virus can separately. [ 7 ] However, fatal intestinal disease associated with canine coronavirus without the presence of canine parvovirus is still occasionally reported.
Dog pox is an infection of canines which may be caused by the canine herpes virus, and can result in symptoms ranging from no symptoms to inflammation of the respiratory or digestive tract to skin inflammation and lesions. Over 60% of adult male dogs exhibit lesions as a result of this infection. [12]
