  • Title: Isolation of brucella abortus from two dogs in contact with bovine brucellosis.
    Author: Prior MG.
    Journal: Can J Comp Med; 1976 Jan; 40(1):117-8. PubMed ID: 826308.
    Abstract:
    On a farm where several cattle were serologically positive for bovine brucellosis, three dogs were found to have titres greater than 400 i.u. to Brucella abortus. The titres persisted until the dogs were killed over two months later. Two male dogs were necropsied. B. abortus was isolated from the spleen of both dogs. While farm dogs are not thought to be a major reservoir of bovine brucellosis they may be considered as possible carriers in imfected herds and should be considered during the investigation and eradication of bovine brucellosis.
