Beta hemolytic Streptococcus - This bacteria is very contagious, and if it is
present at the time of breeding, the bitch may well not take. It can render a
male sterile when carried in the sheath. If the bitch acquires an infection
once she is already pregnant, the puppies can be born dead, dying, or can even
die months later. Ms. Lemire has noticed the likelihood of uterine
inertia/dystocia is increased when a beta Strep infection is
present. http://siriusdog.com/infections-sires-dams-puppies-dog-breeding.htm
Beta(β)-haemolytic streptococci (e.g. Streptococcus canis) has been
incriminated as causing mortality in kittens, usually in the first few weeks of
life. S. equi sub zooepidemicus has also been reported as fatal in adult cats
following infection transferred from dogs[3].Â
