Lexi Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Two cases of Canine Flu have been reported in Windsor, ON. The two infected dogs were rescued greyhounds originally imported from South Korea through the United States by MotorCity Greyhound Rescue which offers foster homes and adoption services in both Detroit and the Windsor area. Earlier this week, the Windsor-Essex County Health Unit confirmed two cases of H3N2 canine influenza in Essex County. According to an animal infectious disease specialist from the University of Guelph, the dogs were diagnosed and contained quickly.

Lexi Posted January 12, 2018 Author Share Posted January 12, 2018 The article says the dogs were imported from South Korea (via the United States) in late December and were showing signs of respiratory disease the following day when they were examined by a veterinarian. That's all I know. Quote Lexi (mom to Nok, the former feral black kitty) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
