“…Group 2 CRCoV, recently isolated in England as a new ITB pathogen closely related to bovine coronavirus [20], was again found to be associated with the diseased puppy in the present study. CRCoV infection was already confirmed in Japanese domestic dogs both seroepidemiologically [26] and molecular epidemiologically [43]. The present No.…”

ABSTRACT. Infectious tracheobronchitis (ITB), also known as the kennel cough, is a respiratory syndrome of dogs and usually appears to be contagious among dogs housed in groups. Etiologic agent of ITB is multiple and sometimes complex. In the present study, 68 household dogs showing clinical signs of respiratory infection were examined, and 20 dogs (29.4%) were found to be positive for either of following agents. Bordetella bronchiseptica (B.b.) was most frequently detected from nasal and oropharynx sites of 7 dogs (10.3%). Among the viruses examined, canine parainfluenza virus (CPIV) was detected with the highest frequency (7.4%). Other pathogens included in the order of frequency group 1 canine coronavirus (4.4%), canine adenovirus type 2 (2.9%), group 2 canine respiratory coronavirus (1.5%), and canine distemper virus (1.5%). Only 2 cases showed mixed infections. Neither influenza A virus nor canine bocavirus (minute virus of canines) was found in any dogs examined. These results indicate that both B.b. and CPIV are likely to be the principal etiologic agents of canine ITB in Japan, and they may be considered as the target for prophylaxis by vaccination. KEY WORDS: Bordetella bronchiseptica, canine parainfluenza virus, canine respiratory coronavirus, infectious tracheobronchitis, kennel cough.

“…Erles et al [5] designated this unknown group 2 coronavirus canine respiratory coronavirus (CRCoV), which is considered to be one of the major pathogens of canine infectious respiratory disease (CRID), like canine parainfluenza virus (CPIV), canine adenovirus type 2 (CAV-2), and the bacterium Bordetella bronchiseptica [3][4][5]. We also reported that the known group 1 coronaviruses (CCoV) that cause enteritis and an unknown group 2 coronavirus were prevalent in domestic dogs in Japan [8]. Compatible results in a survey of dogs in Japan for group 2 canine coronavirus infection were also reported by Yachi and Mochizuki [18].…”

ABSTRACT. Canine respiratory coronavirus (CRCoV), which is more closely related to the bovine coronavirus (BCoV), has recently been detected in dogs. In this study, we examined whether BCoV was capable of infecting and exhibiting pathogenicity in dogs. Three 1-month-old pups were oronasally given field isolates of BCoV, and were kept together with 2 control animals. As a result, increases in BCoV-neutralizing antibody titers were confirmed in all pups in the challenged and control groups. Moreover, the virus gene was also detected in oral and rectal swabs by RT-PCR. These results indicate that BCoV infects dogs, and easily infects other dogs that are kept together. However, no clinical symptoms such as respiratory symptoms and diarrhea were observed.

“…To date, few CRCoV strains have been isolated from a small number of countries: the United Kingdom (n=2), Japan (n=2), Italy (n=1), and Korea (n=3) [1,6,12,17]. Antibodies against CRCoV are common in canine populations in the United Kingdom (36.2%), Republic of Ireland (30.3%), USA (54.7%), Japan (17.8%), Italy (32.1%), and New Zealand (29%) [4,9,10,13].…”

ABSTRACT. The relationship between canine respiratory coronavirus (CRCoV) and canine influenza virus (CIV) seropositivity in dogs in Korea was examined. Sixty-two of the 483 samples (12.8%) were seropositive for CRCoV by indirect fluorescent antibody (IFA) analysis. Nineteen animals were seropositive for CIV by ELISA out of the 385 samples tested. Serum antibodies for both viruses were detected in 6 of the 483 dogs sampled, suggesting that these viruses are present in dogs in Korea. Although the role of CRCoV in canine infectious tracheobronchitis has not been fully elucidated, co-infection with CIV may synergistically worsen respiratory clinical signs and result in more severe canine tracheobronchitis.
