Winnebago County Animal Services suspending adoptions due to illness

PLEASE BE AWARE🚨
Winnebago County Animal Services will be temporarily suspending adoptions due to a potentially severe upper respiratory illness.
👉What you need to know-
Strep Zoo (Streptococcus Zooepidemicus) has been found in several dogs currently housed at Winnebago County Animal Services. Strep Zoo is a bacterial infection that is highly contagious and spreads quickly in shelter environments where there is high population levels causing stressful environments for the dogs. While Strep Zoo has been around for several years in many parts of the United States, many people are still unaware of the potentially fatal bacterial infection. While this disease is not new, it is new to this facility. Recently, two dogs in the facility were diagnosed with severe pneumonia.
One of those dogs was tested for upper respiratory illness, testing positive for Strep Zoo.
WCAS is working with staff and shelter program veterinarians in response to this illness and are closely monitoring the health of the dogs in our care. WCAS began treatment early this past week by giving all dogs in the facility prophylactic antibiotics while testing was completed. As more tests have come back positive, further treatment is being done to include new intakes of dogs. WCAS is temporarily suspending adoptions until they can be cleared by veterinary staff. We are asking community members to help reduce the intake of new dogs by holding on to stray, healthy dogs while using social media to help return dogs to their owners without entering the shelter.
👉What is Streptococcus Equi Zooepidemicus (Strep Zoo)?
Strep Zoo is a bacterium that is normally found in horses, cattle, and pigs that rarely causes disease. When this bacterium infects immunocompromised dogs, it may cause severe pneumonia. There is no vaccine for Strep Zoo and few warning signs. The bacterium has caused outbreaks of fatal pneumonia in shelter dogs worldwide due to the stressed and crowded conditions in shelters.
What Are The Symptoms of Strep Zoo Disease in Dogs?
Signs of infection include fever, depression, vomiting, labored breathing, coughing blood, and discharge from the nose. The onset of symptoms is typically sudden and rapid. If your pet displays any of these symptoms, we recommend you take them to the vet immediately.
👉Is there a vaccine for Strep Zoo?
There is no vaccine for Strep Zoo. However, this can be an opportunistic disease that can affect immunocompromised dogs. So, vaccines for pets against more common illnesses like “kennel cough”, parvovirus, and canine distemper are important in protecting your pet.
👉I recently adopted from WCAS, should I be concerned?
If the dog is not experiencing symptoms, there should not be concern. You can reach out to WCAS at (815) 319- 4100 for more information and support. If after normal business hours and your pet is experiencing signs of illness, please seek veterinary care.
