| dc.description.abstract | Leptospirosis is an important zoonotic disease found globally, in 2014 due to the launch
of a new tetravalent vaccination and vaccine related reactions believed to be associated,
it reached the public domain as a topic of debate. Not much is known about the current
uptake of vaccinations and dog owner understanding of the disease and its vaccinations
within the United Kingdom (UK) dog owning population.
The study aimed to analyse UK dog owner awareness and perceived risk of leptospirosis
based on an online survey. 259 valid respondents were obtained. Results showed that
awareness of leptospirosis correlated positively with high rainfall areas, multi-dog
households, owners who obtain their dogs from abroad and those who visit the
veterinarian twice yearly. | en_US |
