The authors describe an outbreak of canid herpesvirus 1 (CaHV-1) infection in a litter of nine Corso pups. All pups died after a systemic disease with respiratory symptoms and abdominal pain. The post-mortem findings were suggestive of a CaHV- 1 infection, that was confirmed by histological examinations. A CaHV-1 strain was isolated from the nasal mucosa and from the kidney of a pup. Using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), CaHV-1 was detected in all the samples examined.
