A strain of reovirus type 1 was isolated from a dog which died 2 weeks after onset of a respiratory infection. In monkey-kidney cells this virus produced intracytoplasmic inclusion bodies similar to those observed after infection with Lang (reovirus, type l) strain. Experimentally infected puppies developed respiratory symptoms. Both naturally and experimentally infected dogs developed interstitial pneumonitis; intracytoplasmic inclusion bodies were found in the bronchial epithelium. Measurable amounts of neutralizing antibodies were present in about one-third of normal adult dogs. The dog-lung strain of virus, although producing few, if any, clinical signs in monkeys, rabbits, g.pigs, hamsters or ferrets, probably propagated in tissues of most species since the virus was recovered from various tissues and homotypic antibodies often developed in these animals. The virus may produce illness in mice; no attempt was made to adapt the virus to mice. It is concluded that reovirus type l is probably another viral pathogen of canine species. (AS).
