Abstract

To investigate the prevalence of the recently described genogroup VI canine noroviruses (CNVs) in dogs in Europe, we tested 510 serum samples from dogs in 14 European countries for anti-IgG CNV antibodies. Seropositive dogs were found throughout Europe. Dogs with antibodies against human noroviruses were also found.
