The importation of rescue dogs has become an increasingly common occurrence in recent years, often involving industrialized countries as the ultimate destination. However, international dog rescue activities have attracted considerable criticism from the veterinary community and the public due to the associated zoonotic disease and public health risks, as well as the potential poor behaviour of international rescue dogs. The Government of Canada has also recently placed a temporary suspension on all commercial dog imports from non-rabies free countries due to the growing concerns of the zoonotic disease risks.

Among lacrimal system injuries, canalicular lacerations are at the top of the list. Men are more affected than women, but children are most likely to experience such trauma. The cause depends on the patient's age: in young children, there is a higher prevalence of animal bites (dogs and cats); in young adults, fights predominate, since motor vehicle accidents have become less common; in the elderly, falls are among the most frequent causes.

Expansion of the use of lateral flow devices (LFD) for animal rabies diagnosis can help mitigate the widespread underreporting of rabies. However, this has been hindered by the limited number and small sample size of previous studies. To overcome this limitation, we conducted a multicenter study with a larger sample size to assess the diagnostic accuracy of the ADTEC LFD for postmortem rabies diagnosis in animals.
