Abstract
Viruses with properties consistent with herpesvirus were isolated from dogs with diarrhea. The viruses were shown to be antigenically related to feline herpesvirus-1 (FHV-1) by virus neutralization tests. It was also observed that a canine herpesvirus (CHV) prototype, D004, and two field isolates from fatal CHV infections in 2-week-old and 6-week-old puppies were neutralized at a low level by antiserum to FHV-1. Reciprocal neutralization tests with CHV antiserum against FHV-1 were negative. These results indicated that viruses related to FHV-1 can infect the dog and that there appears to be uni-directional virus neutralization of CHV by FHV-1 antibody.Entities:
