Abstract
This report describes an outbreak at a dog daycare facility where 13 of 52 dogs developed suspected canine papillomavirus (CPV) infection. Based on contact tracing, subclinical CPV shedding was speculated. Active surveillance, exclusion of animals with active or recent infection and cohort formation may have been effective in stopping the outbreak.
