Intake Vaccinations Reduced Signs of Canine Respiratory Disease During an Outbreak at an Animal Shelter

Abstract: Animal shelters provide an ideal environment for the spread of disease. Dogs are often housed in close quarters with others of unknown vaccine histories, and experience high levels of sustained stress. As a result, Canine Infection Respiratory Disease (CIRD) is often prevalent and difficult to control. The aims of this study were to (1) identify specific pathogens responsible for CIRD in a city shelter in West Texas, USA, and (2) determine whether intake vaccinations decrease proportion of dogs exhibiting sign… Show more

“…It is also of utmost importance that vaccination protocols be followed through, according to the specific guidelines published for animal shelters (Decaro et al, 2020), to ensure a "herd effect"-i.e., to guarantee susceptible members of a certain population an indirect protection against a pathogen through immune members, as the risk of exposure to an infected individual decreases. This effect can be determined by the strength of previous infection transmission and recovery, as well as by herd immunity, that is, the proportion of immune individuals in each population (John and Samuel, 2000;Andrukonis et al, 2021). In our study, although a higher percentage of dogs with protective antibody levels against the studied pathogens were admitted to the shelter, the seroprevalence for CDV and CAV was insufficient to ensure a herd effect.…”

“…Therefore, the CAV-2 vaccine is preferred for cross-protection and has the advantage that it does not cause side effects like CAV-1. The positive effect of the vaccine has been described elsewhere (Abdelmagid et al 2004;Barthold et al 2011;Andrukonis et al 2021). In Turkey, a programmed vaccination against adenoviral infections is not carried out and imported vaccines are made at the request of animal owners in private clinics.…”

“…The intranasal and oral vaccines only need to be administered once at intake as they are not inactivated by maternal antibody and confer a 13‐month DOI (Jacobs et al., 2005; Scott‐Garrard et al., 2020). Vaccination of all shelter dogs on admission with a parenteral vaccine containing modified‐live CDV, CAV‐2 and CPiV coupled with the intranasal modified‐live B. bronchiseptica and CPiV vaccine is associated with reduced occurrence of respiratory disease (Andrukonis et al., 2021).…”
