How do dogs and cats get AIDS?
Can they even get infected with AIDS?
There is no conclusive proof that a canine retrovirus exists. However, there have been university lab studies done on the blood of dogs and how they react to the human virus (HIV/AIDS) and other equivalent viruses.
In 50% of cases using an “immunoblotting” technique, the university tested the dog’s blood and it reacted to the human version of the virus. Viruses used were human
HIV, monkey SlV(mac), cat FIV, and goat CAEV.
The results of this suggest that dogs may become infected as their blood can cross react with other HIV proteins but this is in no way conclusive and it definately doesn’t state if the dogs physiologically would have the same reaction as humans or cats would given the same virus.
