This dog was part of a large shipment of dogs and cats from Egypt that rescue organizations had distributed to multiple states for adoption. During the investigation, public health officials learned that the rabies vaccination certificate used for entry of the rabid dog into the United States had intentionally been falsified to avoid exclusion of the dog from entry under CDC’s current dog importation regulations. This report underscores the ongoing risk posed by U.S. importation of domestic animals that have not been adequately vaccinated against rabies.

Today I saw how Americans buy dogs at a rescue dog market. Hundreds of people in a small New England town shopping for a dog from unknown sources and unknown conditions sent from Louisiana and Texas.

The adoption fee in Cheatham County is $50, but Hooper’s friend said they told her the dog was promised to a rescue.”I questioned him. I said, ‘So we’re just a puppy mill for rescue groups? Are we just providing them products to sell?'”

Rescue gone mad: On June 10, CDC’s Poxvirus and Rabies Branch confirmed the diagnosis of rabies in a dog imported from Cairo, Egypt. In total, 18 US citizens (Virginia residents) have been started on rabies post-exposure prophylaxis due to contact with the rabid dog. Human and animal exposure investigations have been completed at the state level. A review is underway to determine how this infected dog was able to enter the United States.
