*Usually mild [[Lungs Inflammatory - Pathology#Bronchointerstitial pneumonia|bronchointerstitial pneumonia]], necrosis of bronchiolar and alveolar epithelium, oedema, type II pneumocyte hyperplasia

*May cause necrotising [[Bronchi and Bronchioles Inflammatory - Pathology#Infectious causes of bronchitis or bronchiolitis|bronchiolitis]] in immune-deficient dogs ([[Paramyxoviridae#Canine Distemper Virus (CDV)|distemper]])

*Foxes are very susceptible (Fox Encephalitis)
  −
====Pathogenesis====
  −
*Infects and replicates in the oropharynx
  −
*Viremia as the virus reaches endothelial cells
  −
*Attacks the endothelial lining of '''gall bladder''', '''liver sinusoids''', and '''Kuppfer cells'''
  −
*Resulting '''heptatitis''' is followed by severe abdominal pain and often death
  −
*Post Mortem: swollen, hemorrhagic liver, ascites, and oedema of the gall bladder
  −
*In older dogs, may present more mildly with lymph node enlargement and chronic interstitial nephritis
  −
*In foxes: virus replicates in the endothelia of the brain resulting in neuronal damage, fits, and paralysis
      
====Epidemiology====
 
====Epidemiology====
 
*Transfers '''easily''' via ingesting infected '''urine, feces or respiratory secretions'''

====Diagnosis====
  −
*Intranuclear inclusion bodies in hepatocytes can be seen under H&E staining
  −
*Vascular endothelium can be stained for viral '''antigen''' by '''immunofluorescence'''
  −
  −
====Control====
  −
In an outbreak
  −
*Isolate infected dogs
  −
*Disinfect premises
  −
To prevent
  −
*'''Vaccination''': tissue culture adaptation that may be live or inactivated
  −
*Cross protection with CAV2
  −
*Live vaccines are known to cause keratitis in Afghans, Red Setters and Saluki
