Abstract

<p>An 11-year-old, male, intact Shetland sheepdog, weighting 18 kg, presented with lameness and difficulty standing. The dog was recumbent and developed gas gangrene in the right hind leg. Clostridium novyi was identified by broad-range PCR and sequencing. Gas gangrene and clostridial myositis are rare in dogs. Clostridium perfringens and Clostridium septicum have been identified as causative agents, but C. novyi was never reported.</p>
