When inoculated by various routes with approximately 10 (or 10") Brucellacanis organisms, all adult dogs became infected. When dogs were inoculated with approximately 10 organisms by different routes, the positive rate of infection by the route ofinoculation was as follows: 2/2 (No. infected/No. inoculated) (intravenous), 2/2 (sub-cutaneous), 2/4 (conjunctival), 074 (oral) and 073 (intravaginal). Five male dogs were in-oculated orally with 3.2Xl0 B. canis organisms and examined weekly for urine. Theorganisms were first detected in their urine a few weeks after the onset of bacteremia.Then a high concentration of these organisms was usually excreted continuously. Five4-week-old puppies born from a B. canis-free bitch were housed together with these in-fected males in an isolated facility for 18 weeks. One of them became infected. The trans-mission of brucellosis to the puppy seemed to have been caused by a contact with B. canis-contaminated urine.
