a

Vaccination status against CPV at the time of collection of fecal sample.

b

Refers to a cross between a canine breed that is native to the island of St. Kitts, and another breed.

c

In a recent study, new CPV-2a has also been designated as CPV-2a-297A (Zhou et al., 2017).

d

ORF, Open Reading Frame.

e

Information on exact age not available.

f

Date/s (month-year) of vaccination with VANGUARD Plus 5 L4 (Zoetis, USA).

g

As only small amounts of fecal samples were received from the clinics, it was not possible to obtain the complete ORF sequence of VP2 gene. However, the partial deduced VP2 amino acid sequences of strains PVC18 and PVC21 exhibited 426-N and 555-V, seen in CPV-2a strains.
