With the recent spread of canine influenza across Asia, parts of the U.S. and most recently, two confirmed cases in Ontario, CKC advises all judges at CKC events ask exhibitors to open the dog's mouth for examination to ensure the health and safety of our dogs. We also recommend that Judges who choose to open a dog's mouth for examination sanitize their hands when possible.
For information about canine influenza and the recent activity in Canada, please visit the
University of Guelph’s Ontario Veterinary College website.
