Canine Herpes Virus<br />
What is Canine Herpes Virus<br />
Canine herpes virus (CHV-1) affects only dogs. In mature dogs and puppies over 3-4 weeks of age, this virus causes a mild respira<strong>to</strong>ry<br />
disease that dogs overcome rapidly. But like all the herpes viruses of man and animals, all recovered dogs carry a few of the virus for life<br />
in a sleeping or latent form. But if your dog is one of the many that carries this virus, it could become a serious problem again in your<br />
dog's puppies.<br />
Canine herpes virus is very common. It is found all over the World. Approximately one out of two or one out of three dogs have been<br />
exposed and carry this virus in their bodies. The greater the number of dogs that are kept <strong>to</strong>gether or that live in close proximity, the more<br />
likely the virus is <strong>to</strong> be present. The more stressed breeding bitches are, the more likely herpes-related puppy loss and small or lost litters<br />
will occur. In some kennels, 100% of the dogs show evidence that they harbor CHV-1.<br />
Although it is theoretically possible <strong>to</strong> establish groups of herpes-free dogs, show and large breeding kennels can not avoid this virus.<br />
However, good kennel practices, breeding programs, sanitation and proper nutrition will help you minimize or eliminate potential CHV-1<br />
problems.<br />
How Is Canine Herpes Virus Spread To My Dog <br />
Most dogs become infected with canine herpes virus by inhaling or sniffing virus- containing sneezes and any liquid or moist secretions<br />
from an infected, virus-shedding dog. This can be another dog that was recently infected at a dog show or kennel or a carrier dog that<br />
relapsed due <strong>to</strong> a stressful situation. Most of the dogs that are passing on this virus appear completely normal.<br />
A stud can transmit canine herpes virus <strong>to</strong> your bitch or vice versa. When a stud is shedding, the virus is present in his semen. When a<br />
bitch is shedding, the virus is present in her vaginal secretions. But this is not the primary way the disease moves around.<br />
Canine herpes virus does not last long in the environment. So just passing your dog through an area that has CHV-1 positive dogs is not<br />
a problem. Sunlight, common disinfectants and bleach kill the virus rapidly.<br />
How Will Canine Herpes Virus Affect My Puppies<br />
If you are a breeder, the most likely thing you will see subsequent <strong>to</strong> a CHV-1 problem is a drop in fertility in your breeding bitches. If you<br />
are the owner of a single female, the most likely thing <strong>to</strong> happen is a tie with no puppies at whelping time.<br />
But if your bitch experiences a rise in virus numbers near the end of her pregnancy without a sufficient rise in her antibody level, you will<br />
loose all or some of the puppies during their first three weeks of life. This can be your bitches first experience with the CHV-1 virus, or a<br />
relapse due <strong>to</strong> the stress of pregnancy and other fac<strong>to</strong>rs - usually the latter.<br />
Most of these lost puppies are infected by their mothers during birthing or shortly t<strong>here</strong>after. But some develop the infection while still in<br />
the womb. When infection occurs while the puppies are still in her uterus, they may be stillborn, re-absorbed or aborted before they reach<br />
term.<br />
When a puppy under 3-4 weeks of age becomes infected with this virus, the disease takes an entirely different course than it does in an<br />
older dog. We believe this is because puppies up <strong>to</strong> 3-4 weeks old do not regulate their body temperature well and because the immune<br />
systems of these puppies are not sufficiently developed yet. Puppies born from mothers that have a decent antibody level against herpes<br />
are protected through this critical period. But herpes viruses are no<strong>to</strong>rious for not stimulate good immunity. If the mother dog has<br />
adequate immunity herself, she will pass it along in her first milk (colostrum) in the form of anti-herpes antibody and immune cells that<br />
protect her puppies.<br />
Infected, susceptible puppies usually die within their first 3 weeks. But their mothers continue <strong>to</strong> look fine. If some puppies survive, they<br />
are often poor doers that suffer from multiple health problems including heart and nerve damage.<br />
What Are The Signs That My Breeding Dog(s) Might Have Herpes Virus<br />
Lack of breeding success and star-crossed puppies are the most common signs of a canine herpes virus problem. Late term abortions or<br />
re-absorption of the puppies is also common. The most common hint of the presence of CHV-1 in your adult animals are transient, mild,<br />
upper respira<strong>to</strong>ry problems. Less commonly, ulcers similar <strong>to</strong> cold sores and inflammation occur on the animal's vagina, or on the<br />
prepuce and base of the penis. Problem periods often follow an increase in dog numbers or changes in your husbandry practices.<br />
But the majority of dogs dealing with canine herpes virus show absolutely no signs that they are sick.<br />
Only isolation of individual dogs and carefully-considered matings will shield your animals from CHV-1. As with their wide-spread cousin,<br />
the human cold sore virus, the presence of CHV-1 in your kennel is very likely. But it is certainly not a tragedy for your kennel or hopes of<br />
successful breeding program either.
What Are The Signs Of Canine Herpes Virus In My Puppies <br />
Your puppy could have been infected any time from late pregnancy through the first three weeks after birth. Whenever it occurred, it takes 3-7<br />
days from the time the virus first entered the puppy for it <strong>to</strong> begin its destruction.<br />
If the puppies were born alive, the first sign of infection is often a lack of interest in nursing. But t<strong>here</strong> is no one, specific, sign that alerts us <strong>to</strong><br />
herpes. The puppies just aren't doing well. They may whine continuously and appear uncomfortable. They may appear <strong>to</strong> be in pain due <strong>to</strong> tender<br />
tummies. They often have fast, shallow breathing. They may vomit. They may pass yellowish green s<strong>to</strong>ols. Nose and eye discharges are<br />
common. Less common signs are an increased tendency <strong>to</strong> bleed and seizures. Infected puppies sometimes have pin-point hemorrhages on<br />
their gums.<br />
Young puppies, are not capable of running a fever. Their body mass is just not high enough in proportion <strong>to</strong> their skin area. This is the weakness<br />
of puppies in dealing with herpes. The virus reproduces much more rapidly at the puppy's lower body temperature than in dogs that can mount a<br />
fever.<br />
As the disease progresses, the puppy's temperature drops <strong>to</strong> subnormal (Below 98F, 36.7C). Subnormal temperature in puppies is a grave sign.<br />
The disease progresses very rapidly and the puppies usually die in 1-3 days. Because the signs are few and the disease rapid, owners may not<br />
recognize that their puppy is ill until it is gone. If the puppies are lost during their first week, they were probably infected while still in the womb.<br />
By the time the puppy is three weeks old, its defenses and temperature regulation are better and it will usually not die from CHV-1.<br />
Exact outcomes vary - not every puppy in a litter with this problem may die nor will they all necessarily have the virus.<br />
How Is Canine Herpes Virus Diagnosed<br />
Adult Dogs:<br />
The blood tests we currently have are not very helpful identifying dogs that carry the canine herpes virus or in managing the ones that do. They<br />
are also not helpful in identifying which mothers will have problem litters. If a dog has a titer <strong>to</strong> CHV-1 , we know the bitch or stud is infected. But<br />
we don't know if the dog is, or will be, shedding virus during or after pregnancy. If the antibody test is negative, we are not certain the dog still<br />
does not have the virus lurking somew<strong>here</strong> it it's body. This is because the virus doesn't stimulate long-lasting antibodies.<br />
To tell if your dog is shedding the virus, blood samples need <strong>to</strong> be collected two weeks apart. If the antibody level in the second sample is 3-4<br />
times as high as in the first sample, the dog is likely in a virus-shedding period and should not be bred. However, a steady, low antibody level or<br />
no antibody at all is no guarantee that a female that carries CHV-1 will not begin <strong>to</strong> shed virus during or after her pregnancy.<br />
An alternative method is <strong>to</strong> have mouth and vaginal swabs tested for living herpes virus or virus-related protein (FA test or PCR test).<br />
Puppies:<br />
When canine herpes virus is suspected in the death of puppies, the puppy's remains need <strong>to</strong> be refrigerated immediately , packed in ice, and<br />
sent <strong>to</strong> a veterinary diagnostic labora<strong>to</strong>ry. The remains should not be fr<strong>oz</strong>en. This submission must be done through your veterinarian. If you live<br />
outside of the United States or <strong>to</strong>o far <strong>to</strong> send refrigerated samples, tissues can be collected from the puppy with the instructions of a trained<br />
technician , preserved in formol and shipped by ordinary mail.<br />
The pathologist who examines this tissue will look for certain things that are characteristic of herpes virus infection. The most important is<br />
evidence of extensive bleeding (hemorrhage) in the liver, lungs and kidneys. This occurs because the herpes virus destroys the puppy's bloodclotting<br />
platelets. Damage and bleeding in<strong>to</strong> the spleen, lymph nodes and adrenal glands are also characteristic of puppy death due <strong>to</strong> herpes<br />
virus as are fluid leakage in<strong>to</strong> the chest and abdominal cavities.<br />
If recently aborted fetuses are submitted, they should be handled like puppies and , if necessary, tested with the same techniques used on swabs<br />
obtained from adults.<br />
Is T<strong>here</strong> Any Effective Treatment<br />
Adults and Juvenile Dogs Over 3-4 Weeks Of Age:<br />
Rest and TLC are all adult dogs need <strong>to</strong> get over the active stage of herpes infection or relapses.<br />
Puppies Under 3 Weeks Of Age:<br />
Treatment of sick puppies that have this disease is not successful. Since your veterinarian is not certain yet that this is a case of herpes virus,<br />
he/she will probably try all sorts of life-supporting measures including warmth, tube feeding, oxygen and intravenous or subcutaneous fluids.<br />
Pups tend <strong>to</strong> perk up a bit with this care - but they fade back down shortly t<strong>here</strong>after.<br />
Although elevated temperature kills this herpes virus, treating the puppy with elevated temperature has not proved effective in saving the pups.<br />
T<strong>here</strong> are reported cases w<strong>here</strong> puppies were saved by giving them blood serum from adult dogs that recently recovered from herpes virus.<br />
Blood serum from these adult dogs often contains enough antibodies <strong>to</strong> neutralize the herpes. If you have a herpes virus problem in your kennel<br />
and want <strong>to</strong> protect certain puppies during their first three weeks of life, 1-2ml of serum may do so. This serum can be fr<strong>oz</strong>en at -4F (-20C) in 1-<br />
2ml amounts. At this temperature, it lasts indefinitely. Antibodies will be highest in mature dogs that have just recovered from an active relapse or<br />
initial infection. It would be excellent if this serum was tested and found <strong>to</strong> be PCR-herpes negative with an anti-herpes antibody titer of as high<br />
as 1:1024 - but 1:64 or 1:32 would probably do.<br />
T<strong>here</strong> is another report that the antiviral drug, vidarabine, has saved some puppies. I do not suggest you treat sick puppies. When puppies<br />
survive herpes virus infection they are usually left with nervous system and heart damage and it is kinder <strong>to</strong> just let them pass on.
Are T<strong>here</strong> Other Diseases That Could Be Mistaken For Canine Herpes Virus<br />
T<strong>here</strong> are a few common infectious diseases that can be mistaken for herpes deaths in puppies. Canine brucellosis and overwhelming bacterial<br />
infections (septicemia) are two that need <strong>to</strong> be ruled out.<br />
Accidents and inexperienced or distracted moms are also a common cause of puppy death. Also, some puppies have birth defects that lead <strong>to</strong><br />
sudden early death.<br />
More rarely, the pro<strong>to</strong>zoan parasites, Neospora and Toxoplasma cause sudden puppy death. Fatal puppy infections with the canine adenovirus,<br />
corona virus and the MVC virus have also been encountered but this is rare.<br />
How Did My Dog Catch Canine Herpes Virus<br />
Most likely, your dog was exposed <strong>to</strong> the herpes virus at a kennel, groomer, dog show or animal shelter - any place w<strong>here</strong> large numbers of dogs<br />
gather at one time. It did not catch the virus from just passing through these areas - it sniffed or inhaled secretions from another infected dog.<br />
Although it is possible that your dog contracted the virus while being bred, or artificially inseminated, that is not the way most cases occur.<br />
Is T<strong>here</strong> Any Cure For Canine Herpes Virus In Adult Dogs<br />
Once a dog catches canine herpes virus, they are never completely free of it again. Most dogs that become infected, go through a mild initial<br />
upper respira<strong>to</strong>ry tract illness that lasts a week or two and then are never visibly sick again. But the CHV-1 virus is very well adapted <strong>to</strong> dogs.<br />
Instead of being completely destroyed by your dog's immune system, some of the virus enter cells within the pet's nerve centers (trigeminal &<br />
lumbosacral ganglia, etc.) and live t<strong>here</strong> in a state of suspended animation forever. In this state, they do no harm. In this state, the dog can not<br />
spread the disease. In this state, all labora<strong>to</strong>ry tests for the presence of the virus or antibody against it may be negative. But the virus is still t<strong>here</strong>.<br />
And, in a few dogs, it will reappear in its infective state when the dog's immune system is stressed.<br />
If you would like <strong>to</strong> understand this phenomenon better, read about how herpes simplex viruses (HSV-1 & 2) affect humans. The human and the<br />
dog herpes viruses are very similar in how they behave once they have gained access <strong>to</strong> the body. However, many more resources have been<br />
invested in understanding the human herpes virus than the dog herpes virus.<br />
What About Vaccination<br />
The Merial Pharmaceutical Company has developed a vaccine that boosts immunity <strong>to</strong> canine herpes virus for about 60 days and makes it less<br />
likely that a bitch will be shedding virus during pregnancy, delivery and nursing. It also makes it more likely that the bitch will pass on her herpesimmunity<br />
<strong>to</strong> her puppies through her first milk (colostrum). This vaccine is called Eurican Herpes 205. It appears <strong>to</strong> be quite effective. However,<br />
although it is available in Europe and pehaps elsew<strong>here</strong>, is not yet marketed in the United States.<br />
The first injection is given when the bitch is bred. The second is given 6-7 weeks later. The process must be repeated every time the dog is bred<br />
since the immunity it gives is temporary. It is a good insurance in first-time breeders and repeat problem breeders.<br />
Breeders have asked me when this vaccine will be available in the US. I have not been successful in obtaining this information from Merial. The<br />
policy of this Georgia-based company is <strong>to</strong> release as little information as possible as <strong>to</strong> their marketing plans. The only person I know of that<br />
could answer this question is Dr. Herve Poulet, the veterinarian who developed it.<br />
How Can I Sanitize Against The Virus<br />
Herpes is not a <strong>to</strong>ugh virus like parvo. Canine herpes virus is quickly killed by most common household disinfectants. Temperature over 104 F<br />
kills the virus as does exposure <strong>to</strong> bright sunlight.<br />
At dog shows and other community areas with many dogs, keep paper <strong>to</strong>wels and a spray bottle of dilute antiseptic close at hand. Disinfect your<br />
hands before <strong>to</strong>uching other dogs or allowing your dog <strong>to</strong> be handled by others. Good disinfectants for herpes, listed in order of effectiveness are<br />
70% isopropyl alcohol mixed 50-50 with water, 0.5% Lysol, Listerine mixed 50-50 with water and household bleach diluted 7 tablespoons-full in 1<br />
quart of water (2000ppm).<br />
Keep your dog on a short lead. Keep its head up and do not let it sniff the floor and objects. Spray and wipe off it paws with alcohol.<br />
Do not share items, food or water between dogs. Spray and wipe down kennels before between animals. Keep your dogs as isolated from other<br />
dogs as possible.<br />
How Can I Prevent Another Litter of Sick Puppies <br />
The most common scenario is that bitches that loose a litter <strong>to</strong> canine herpes virus go on <strong>to</strong> deliver normal litters. This is because these females<br />
eventually clear their bloodstream of virus leaving only the non-infective, dormant virus in portions of their nervous system. When this does not<br />
happen, the bitch's general health needs <strong>to</strong> be examined for things that are interfering with her immune system. This could be chronic, stressful<br />
environment, poor nutrition, crowding, poor sanitation, or a chronic disease of some other type. Shipping and boarding can also be enough <strong>to</strong><br />
relapse these dogs.<br />
The thyroid hormone level (T-4) needs <strong>to</strong> be determined in older (5yrs+) breeders. T<strong>here</strong> is mixed info on whether corticosteroid drugs play a part<br />
in relapse.
Isolation and quarantine of bitches from three weeks before they are bred until three weeks after they are bred can be helpful. Given their own private<br />
setting, individual care, and TLC, they are less likely <strong>to</strong> start shedding the virus again. If they are still free of the virus at breeding age, they will more<br />
likely stay that way when they are isolated.<br />
When the puppies arrive, maintain them in clean, warm, well-ventilated areas away from the other dogs. Maintain a routine de worming and external<br />
parasite program.<br />
Do not over-breed your bitches.<br />
Should I Breed My Female Dog Again<br />
Yes,<br />
If t<strong>here</strong> were good reasons for you <strong>to</strong> breed your dog before you learned that it harbored the CHV-1 virus, t<strong>here</strong> is no reason not <strong>to</strong> breed her again.<br />
Wait a year, build your dog's health up and breed her again <strong>to</strong> a different stud.<br />
If the second litter is still a problem litter, retire the breeder.<br />
What is Eurican Herpes 205<br />
Eurican Herpes 205 is a powder and solvent that is made in<strong>to</strong> an emulsion for injection. Eurican Herpes 205 contains the active substance canine<br />
herpes virus (F205 strain) antigens in a dose of 0.3 <strong>to</strong> 1.75 μg.<br />
What is Eurican Herpes 205 used for<br />
Eurican Herpes 205 is used <strong>to</strong> immunise pregnant bitches <strong>to</strong> prevent mortality, clinical signs and lesions in puppies caused by canine herpes virus<br />
infections acquired in the first few days of life.<br />
Eurican Herpes 205 is given as two 1 ml subcutaneous (under the skin) doses. The first injection is given either when the bitch is on heat or 7 –10<br />
days after the date of mating. The second injection is given 1 <strong>to</strong> 2 weeks before the expected date of whelping. The bitch should be revaccinated in<br />
the same way during each pregnancy.<br />
How does Eurican Herpes 205 work<br />
Eurican Herpes 205 contains small amounts of canine herpes virus antigens. When injected, this small exposure helps the dog’s immune system <strong>to</strong><br />
synthesize antibodies against the canine herpes virus and <strong>to</strong> neutralize it. Once vaccinated, bitches will, through colostrum, give those antibodies <strong>to</strong><br />
puppies. When exposed <strong>to</strong> canine herpes virus later in life, the puppies will either not become infected or have a much less serious infection. Eurican<br />
Herpes 205 is intended <strong>to</strong> protect the puppies from this infection during the first few days of life.<br />
How has the effectiveness of Eurican Herpes 205 been studied<br />
Eurican Herpes 205 has been studied in three labora<strong>to</strong>ry studies and two field trials. In one field trial the serological response (antibody production)<br />
was measured. In the other, a study was made of the effect of vaccination on the ability of bitches <strong>to</strong> breed in an infected kennel. The first labora<strong>to</strong>ry<br />
study tested the dose needed <strong>to</strong> provide protection. The second study was carried out <strong>to</strong> show the protection of puppies from vaccinated bitches from<br />
canine herpe svirus. Here Eurican Herpes 205 was compared with no vaccination (controls). The last one has demonstrating that induction of<br />
antibodies is equivalent when bitches are vaccinated the day of heat or 7-10 days after mating.<br />
in relapse.<br />
What benefit has Eurican Herpes 205 shown during the studies<br />
Eurican Herpes 205 showed good protection from canine herpes virus. In the study <strong>to</strong> show the protection of puppies (from vaccinated bitches) from<br />
canine herpes virus, over 80% of the pups from the vaccinated bitches survived.<br />
What are the side effects of Eurican Herpes 205<br />
The injection of Eurican Herpes 205 may cause temporary oedema (fluid under the skin) at the injection site in up <strong>to</strong> 10% of animals. This side effect<br />
usually disappears within one week. Rarely, hypersensitivity (allergic) reactions may occur, which require treatment.<br />
What are the precautions for the person who gives the medicine or comes<br />
in<strong>to</strong> contact with the animal<br />
Eurican Herpes 205 contains mineral oil. Accidental injection may cause severe pain and swelling, particularly if injected in<strong>to</strong> a joint or finger – rarely<br />
causing the loss of a finger. If someone is accidentally injected with this product, they must seek immediate medical advice even if only a very small<br />
amount is injected. The Package Leaflet should be taken <strong>to</strong> the doc<strong>to</strong>r. If pain persists for more than 12 hours after medical examination, the doc<strong>to</strong>r<br />
should be contacted again.<br />
Why has Eurican Herpes 205 been approved<br />
The Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use (CVMP) agreed that the benefits of Eurican Herpes 205 are greater than any risks <strong>to</strong><br />
immunise healthy bitches against canine herpes virus. They recommended that Eurican Herpes 205 should be given a marketing authorisation. The<br />
benefitrisk balance may be found in module 6 of this EPAR.
y Joanna Kimball<br />
This is one of the most pervasive sentiments that puppy buyers, especially families, express when they're looking for a dog.<br />
What they really mean, of course, is that they don't want a show BREEDER – don't want <strong>to</strong> pay the high price they think show<br />
breeders charge, don't want <strong>to</strong> go through the often-invasive interview process, and think that they're getting a better deal or a<br />
real bargain because they can get a Lab for $300 or a Shepherd for $150.<br />
I want you <strong>to</strong> change your mind. I want you <strong>to</strong> not only realize the benefits of buying a show-bred dog, I want you <strong>to</strong> INSIST on<br />
a show-bred dog. And I want you <strong>to</strong> realize that the cheap dog is really the one that's the rip-off. And then I want you <strong>to</strong> go be<br />
obnoxious and, when your workmate says she's getting a puppy because her neighbor, who raises them, will give her one for<br />
free, or when your brother-in-law announces that they're buying a goldendoodle for the kids, I want you <strong>to</strong> launch yourself in<strong>to</strong><br />
their solar plexus and steal their wallets and their car keys.<br />
Here's why:<br />
If I ask you why you want a Maltese, or a Lab, or a Leonberger, or a Cardigan, I would bet you're not going <strong>to</strong> talk about how<br />
much you like their color. You're going <strong>to</strong> tell me things about personality, ability (<strong>to</strong> perform a specific task), relationships with<br />
other animals or humans, size, coat, temperament, and so on. You'll describe playing ball, or how affectionate you've heard<br />
that they are, or how well they get along with kids.<br />
The things you will be looking for aren't the things that describe just "dog"; they'll be the things that make this particular breed<br />
unique and unlike other breeds.<br />
That's w<strong>here</strong> people have made the right initial decision – they've taken the time and made the effort <strong>to</strong> understand that t<strong>here</strong><br />
are differences between breeds and that they should get one that at least comes close <strong>to</strong> matching their picture of what they<br />
want a dog <strong>to</strong> be.<br />
Their next step, tragically, is that they go out and find a dog of that breed for as little money and with as much ease as<br />
possible.<br />
You need <strong>to</strong> realize that when you do this, you're going <strong>to</strong> the used car dealership, WATCHING them pry the "Audi" plate off a<br />
new car, observing them as they use Bondo <strong>to</strong> stick it on a '98 Corolla, and then writing them a check and feeling smug that<br />
you got an Audi for so little.<br />
It is no bargain.<br />
Those things that distinguish the breed you want from the generic world of "dog" are only t<strong>here</strong> because somebody worked<br />
really hard <strong>to</strong> get them t<strong>here</strong>. And as soon as that work ceases, the dog, no matter how purebred, begins <strong>to</strong> revert <strong>to</strong> the<br />
generic. That doesn't mean you won't get a good dog – the magic and the blessing of dogs is that they are so hard <strong>to</strong> mess up,<br />
in their good souls and minds, that even the most hideously bred one can still be a great dog – but it will not be a good<br />
Shepherd, or good Puli, or a good Cardigan. You will not get the specialized abilities, tendencies, or talents of the breed.<br />
If you don't NEED those special abilities or the predictability of a particular breed, you should not be buying a dog at all. You<br />
should go rescue one. That way you're saving a life and not putting money in pockets w<strong>here</strong> it does not belong.<br />
If you want a purebred and you know that a rescue is not going <strong>to</strong> fit the bill, the absolute WORST thing you can do is assume<br />
that a name equals anything. They really are nothing more than name plates on cars. What matters is whether the engineering<br />
and design and service department back up the name plate, so you have some expectation that you're walking away with<br />
more than a label.<br />
Keeping a group of dogs looking and acting like their breed is hard, HARD work. If you do not get the impression that the<br />
breeder you're considering is working that hard, is that dedicated <strong>to</strong> the breed, is struggling <strong>to</strong> produce dogs that are more than<br />
a breed name, you are getting no bargain; you are only getting ripped off.
GSD ATOPIC DERMATITIS GENE IS NO PANACEA<br />
By Susan Chaney<br />
Last week’s headline, “Researchers identify gene associated with eczema in dogs,” on the<br />
AlphaGalileo Foundation website, got me excited. Having researched a<strong>to</strong>pic dermatitis for an<br />
article last September, I immediately imagined what this could mean for dog owners<br />
everyw<strong>here</strong>.<br />
However, as is often the case with headlines, the s<strong>to</strong>ry revealed a less promising tale – not an<br />
un-promising tale, just less promising.<br />
Although isolation of some genes related <strong>to</strong> a<strong>to</strong>pic dermatitis in German Shepherd Dogs is<br />
helpful, it’s not a solution..<br />
It is true that researchers at Uppsala University and the Swedish University of Agricultural<br />
Sciences, both in Uppsala, Sweden, have isolated a region of eight genes on chromosome 37<br />
of the canine genome associated with the <strong>to</strong>ugh-<strong>to</strong>-combat skin condition. However, it is only in<br />
German Shepherd Dogs.<br />
The genes partially responsible for a proclivity <strong>to</strong>ward a<strong>to</strong>pic dermatitis have been identified in<br />
other breeds as well, according <strong>to</strong> Patrick Hensel, Dr.med.vet., a diplomat of the American<br />
College of Veterinary Derma<strong>to</strong>logy and an associate professor of derma<strong>to</strong>logy at the University<br />
of Georgia College of Veterinary Medicine in the city of Athens.<br />
You’d think that dog owners would be getting fewer diagnoses of a<strong>to</strong>pic dermatitis after these<br />
discoveries.<br />
But again, it’s not quite that simple.<br />
A<strong>to</strong>pic dermatitis involves several body processes, Hensel explains, thus genetic material<br />
responsible for inflammation, cell death, skin barrier formation and others contribute <strong>to</strong> whether<br />
a particular dog will or won’t develop it. Most genetic studies have found “several genes”<br />
affecting a single process, he says.<br />
In addition, the environment in which a dog lives “plays a major role <strong>to</strong>o,” he says, “since you<br />
can have two dogs with the same genetic predisposition, but one will develop AD and the other<br />
not. This is one reason why it is not that easy <strong>to</strong> get rid of AD in a breed through breeding<br />
programs.”<br />
The genetic area “detected in the German Shepherd is one which is affecting the skin barrier,”<br />
Hensel says. That skin barrier has become “an important target” for allergy research, he adds.<br />
While it might be discouraging <strong>to</strong> hear that these genetic discoveries, followed by the<br />
development of tests for the particular genes in a particular breed, can’t, on their own, prevent<br />
a<strong>to</strong>pic dermatitis, the news is not all bad. “The good thing about these genetic tests is that once<br />
we know which gene and process are involved, we may be better able <strong>to</strong> improve our allergy<br />
management.”<br />
To isolate this genetic area, the researchers looked at GSDs with lowered Immunoglobulin A,<br />
known as “IgA,” an antibody that plays an important role in immunity. “Serum IgA levels are<br />
known <strong>to</strong> be lower in GSDs compared <strong>to</strong> other breeds. We detected significantly lower IgA<br />
levels in the [canine a<strong>to</strong>pic dermatitis] cases compared <strong>to</strong> controls,” the researchers write in the<br />
abstract of their study results which were published on May 9 by the online journal PLOS<br />
Genetics.<br />
The team concluded: “The PKP2 [plakophilin 2] gene found within the associated region” has<br />
become “an interesting target for further study of its importance both in canine and human AD.”

Dogs that accurately sniff out superbug infections<br />
The role of animals in hospital infections<br />
(NaturalNews) In this high-tech world, sometimes it's better <strong>to</strong> rely on a low-tech solution or, in this case, no tech.<br />
A new study <strong>to</strong> be published in the Christmas issue of the British Medical Journal found that dogs can be used <strong>to</strong> sniff out Clostridium<br />
difficile, or C-diff, the element that is responsible for a rising number of hospital infections that are extremely resistant <strong>to</strong> antibiotics.<br />
The olfac<strong>to</strong>ry sense of dogs can be used <strong>to</strong> identify C-diff infections in s<strong>to</strong>ol samples as well as the air surrounding patients in the<br />
hospital environment, all with a high degree of accuracy, researchers said.<br />
The journal said current findings support earlier conclusions that dogs are capable of detecting various types of cancer as well, and<br />
may have potential for screening hospital wards <strong>to</strong> help prevent C-diff outbreaks.<br />
The infectious C-diff occurs most commonly in older patients who have recently finished a course of antibiotics in the hospital. But the<br />
infections can also begin in the community, especially in nursing homes and other skilled facilities. Symp<strong>to</strong>ms of the infection can<br />
range from mild diarrhea <strong>to</strong> a life-threatening bowel inflammation.<br />
Some questions remain, but early results are promising<br />
Early detection of the infection is important if doc<strong>to</strong>rs hope <strong>to</strong> contain its spread, but diagnostic tests confirming it are slow (and<br />
expensive), which can delay treatment for as much as a week.<br />
Researchers said that diarrhea as a result of a C-diff infection has a certain smell, and that dogs - with their superior olfac<strong>to</strong>ry<br />
capabilities - likely could detect it much better, in comparison with humans. That supposition prompted scientists in the Netherlands <strong>to</strong><br />
see if dogs could be trained <strong>to</strong> sniff out C-diff.<br />
Scientists used a two-year-old male Beagle (named Cliff) that had been trained by a professional instruc<strong>to</strong>r <strong>to</strong> spot C-diff in s<strong>to</strong>ol<br />
samples and in patients who had contracted the infection. Cliff was taught <strong>to</strong> either lay down or sit when he detected the specific<br />
scent.<br />
Following two months of training, Cliff's detection capability was formally tested on 50 C-diff positive and 50 C-diff negative s<strong>to</strong>ol<br />
samples, said scientists. He managed <strong>to</strong> correctly identify all 50 positive samples and 47 of the 50 negative samples.<br />
The results equate <strong>to</strong> 100 percent sensitivity and 94 percent specificity (sensitivity measures the proportion of positives correctly<br />
identified, while specificity measures the proportion of negatives correctly identified).<br />
Cliff was then taken <strong>to</strong> two hospital wards <strong>to</strong> conduct further detection tests in a live environment. The dog managed <strong>to</strong> correctly<br />
identify 25 of 30 cases (83 percent sensitivity) and 265 of 270 negative controls (98 percent specificity). Researchers added that the<br />
dog was efficient and quick, managing <strong>to</strong> screen a complete hospital ward for the presence of patients infected with C-diff in fewer<br />
than 10 minutes.<br />
Early detection certainly possible<br />
Scientists admitted t<strong>here</strong> were some limitations <strong>to</strong> the study, such as the unpredictability of using an animal as a diagnostic <strong>to</strong>ol, as<br />
well as the possibility that the dog itself could spread infections. Other scientists say other unanswered questions remain.<br />
Still, they note that the study demonstrates that training a dog <strong>to</strong> detect C-diff infection with a high degree of accuracy, both in<br />
samples of s<strong>to</strong>ol and in patients who are hospitalized and could contract the infection.<br />
"Early detection could overcome common diagnostic delays (lack of clinical suspicion, delays in sampling s<strong>to</strong>ol, and labora<strong>to</strong>ry<br />
procedures) and lead <strong>to</strong> prompt hygienic measures and treatment," the researchers concluded. "This could have potential for C.<br />
difficile infection screening in healthcare facilities and thus contribute <strong>to</strong> C. difficile infection outbreak control and prevention."

About Our Weekend Together<br />
From our observation, the average owner or trainer spends most of their time fighting long term<br />
unwanted behaviours. Some of these behaviours can be traced <strong>to</strong> your dog’s genetic predisposition.<br />
However, for the most part they are learnt behaviours that have been reinforced time after time. In other<br />
words, they are training problems that may have been taught.<br />
It is from these unwanted behaviours, whether it be in a show, competitive training or simply at home,<br />
that many tricks and gimmicks seem <strong>to</strong> spring in<strong>to</strong> the dog world. These methods in general do not<br />
correct the problems but merely mask them.<br />
In addition these quick-fix solutions only add <strong>to</strong> the problems in training. Once the undesirable<br />
behaviours have developed, training is never as simple as it could have been and is often very frustrating.<br />
At this point a very promising young dog has become nothing but a horror <strong>to</strong> work and live with.<br />
<br />
<br />
When did it all start<br />
Was it as early as the first sit command
Besides the fact that the dog will learn what behaviour <strong>to</strong> perform when it hears the word “sit” it<br />
simultaneously learns how <strong>to</strong> learn (classical conditioning – the feeling associated with it). This is w<strong>here</strong><br />
foundation training begins. What the dog has learnt during its foundation training will have a lasting<br />
effect on its performance, for better or worse. During stress or problem solving the dog will always<br />
attempt <strong>to</strong> access its foundation training as a point of reference. It is at this point in time w<strong>here</strong> the dog<br />
and trainer learn <strong>to</strong> speak the same language – or not! This critical stage of training requires firsthand<br />
knowledge of animal learning, patience and specifically taught exercises.<br />
Von Forell K9 Education offers you complete training opportunities for any promising young dog. We will<br />
show you how <strong>to</strong> reinforce the genetic potential in your dog with the soundest training systems available.<br />
Our seminars and workshops are specifically designed <strong>to</strong> bring about positive and permanent shifts in<br />
your quality of training.<br />
They are designed <strong>to</strong> help you view the training of dogs with complete new possibilities. Finally we will<br />
cover the current state of global breeding practices and the impact on behaviour, what the breeder must<br />
know about proper trait selection, developing their puppies and what they should be teaching their<br />
puppy owners, how this impacts the type of dogs we end up in our community.<br />
On a Personal Note<br />
For any families, competi<strong>to</strong>rs or Law Enforcement Officers that wish <strong>to</strong> attend one of my seminars /<br />
workshops, the information below is designed <strong>to</strong> provide you with some understanding as <strong>to</strong> the overall<br />
structure and focus of the event.<br />
Firstly I will commence with a general opening statement, the his<strong>to</strong>ry and current global position of the<br />
working dog world. I will discuss its belief systems, my philosophy on training dogs, my position on<br />
positive and negative training systems, and all the possibilities it creates.<br />
Then we shall discuss how <strong>to</strong> create and develop a proactive puppy or adult. I will illustrate the<br />
advantages of establishing why this active training component is so important and how <strong>to</strong> achieve it, as it<br />
is the underlying theme in my system.<br />
We will cover the importance of the reinforcement of self-recovery, teaching the dogs how <strong>to</strong> “learn <strong>to</strong><br />
learn” and how they can manipulate their environment <strong>to</strong> access reward. We will cover conditioned<br />
passive and active reward techniques and show you why one technique creates concentration whilst the<br />
other creates motivation.<br />
Shaping puppy behaviour is a vital part of the program but what is most important is the teaching of<br />
active and passive states and the three essential behaviours. This set the dogs up for a successful and<br />
obedient career.<br />
The entire system is about creating a very strong basic foundation which is all possible within your own<br />
home, providing a distraction free environment for optimum learning. My strong opinion is that group<br />
classes are detrimental <strong>to</strong> canine learning in the initial stages and the only way <strong>to</strong> teach a dog properly is<br />
<strong>to</strong> create a quality distraction free environment at home. Once that is established, I will then teach you<br />
how <strong>to</strong> allow increasing distractions <strong>to</strong> enhance and solidify your dog’s target behaviours, and lock them<br />
in.<br />
An exciting aspect of this system is that it rapidly improves your relationship with your dog and<br />
maintains harmony throughout his life. A system that is <strong>to</strong> a large degree maintenance free because the<br />
behaviours are thoroughly unders<strong>to</strong>od by the dog.<br />
I will also show you the use of prompts and containment fields <strong>to</strong> assist the concept of errorless learning,<br />
and how modern training aids only amplify your dog’s responses, with thoughtful application. The<br />
learning systems are designed for people who want <strong>to</strong> establish a great working relationship with their<br />
dog, control their family pet, compete at a high level or improve and manage their tactical Police Dog.

Kris Kotsopoulos has been involved in breeding and training dogs since 1981. He has worked with firsttime<br />
dog owners through <strong>to</strong> the most demanding Law Enforcement Canines and their handlers, and<br />
World Championship Competi<strong>to</strong>rs. Kris and his wife Tonia are breeders of Dobermanns and German<br />
Shepherds under the kennel name “Von Forell”. His dogs and training philosophies have been<br />
incorporated in<strong>to</strong> many training systems by competi<strong>to</strong>rs and Law Enforcement Agencies worldwide.<br />
Kris’s workshops are designed <strong>to</strong> give you a clear directive of how dogs learn, what drives them, how <strong>to</strong><br />
improve learning due <strong>to</strong> purposeful directives, and how <strong>to</strong> shape behaviour for a dynamic, focused and<br />
harmonious performance. This is an opportunity <strong>to</strong> learn the latest cutting edge training systems <strong>to</strong><br />
deliver spirited, obedient animals on cue.<br />
Having devoted the last 32 years of his life <strong>to</strong> research, development and education of the working dog,<br />
paired with extensive work in the area of animal welfare, Kris has now expanded his professional<br />
horizons by sharing his knowledge with the community as a consultant for a range of government<br />
agencies, breed clubs and animal welfare groups.<br />
Over the past three decades, Kris has travelled the globe in order <strong>to</strong> learn from the world’s best<br />
international trainers, breeders and animal behaviourists. As a result of his enthusiasm and dedication for<br />
greater knowledge, Kris has acquired an in-depth understanding of raising, developing and training dogs<br />
for a variety of purposes.<br />
Through the skills and successes he has achieved, Kris has gained a sound understanding of what<br />
motivates animals <strong>to</strong> behave the way they do and just as importantly, how <strong>to</strong> apply this knowledge <strong>to</strong><br />
achieve specialised goals. Kris currently shares this knowledge by operating both national and<br />
international training programs, seminars and workshops, each individually tailored <strong>to</strong> meet the needs of<br />
the general community, other trainers and government agencies globally.<br />
Kris has implemented a variety of learning systems ranging from basic family obedience, <strong>to</strong> the most<br />
demanding competition, police, prison and professional security animals with an emphasis on true, open<br />
and uncomplicated behaviour with stimulus control. He is truly committed <strong>to</strong> breaking down barriers<br />
that exist for dogs and dog welfare in our community, and believes that consultation with breed clubs,<br />
animal management officers and animal welfare groups will help achieve this goal.<br />
“Purposeful, meaningful relationships between handlers and their dogs <strong>to</strong> create extraordinary<br />
dogs and extraordinary handlers.”<br />
Kris’s commitment <strong>to</strong> the dog world is further highlighted through his companies:<br />

Kris is also a co-founder of the National Dogs Trainers Federation - a representative and educational<br />
organisation for the dog training industry, which has now become the national representative body in<br />
Australia for dog trainers from all fields. The NDTF offers Australia’s only Government accredited<br />
nationally recognised dog trainer certification course. By using Kris’s strong links and networks with<br />
other animal organisations, both nationally and internationally, Kris is able <strong>to</strong> assist with the<br />
development of formal policies, contribute <strong>to</strong> ongoing research in the area of canine training and<br />
behaviour, and further build on the necessary educational programs required <strong>to</strong> assert positive influence<br />
and bring about permanent change.<br />
