NEW YORK - Beware of dog, especially the cute puppies in pet store windows, U.S. health officials warn.
The strain, known as Campylobacter jejuni, is closely related to a 2016 outbreak that health officials said was most likely caused by contact with puppies sold at Petland stores, a nationwide chain of franchised pet stores. Twelve of the people infected were linked to Petland, including five employees of the store chain, the CDC said.
“For perspective, more than 12 million guests visit our stores annually and during this specific time period, Petland estimates more than 2.4 million customer socializations of Petland puppies,” it said of the current outbreak.
