HC Deb 03 March 1952 vol 497 c22W
Mr. E. Wakefield

asked the Minister of Agriculture what progress has been made in the research being carried out at the Veterinary Laboratory at Weybridge, into hard pad disease among dogs.

Sir T. Dugdale

The work which has been carried out at the veterinary laboratory at Weybridge indicates that in certain respects there is a close relationship between the viruses associated with classical distemper in the dog, as known in this country, and so called hard pad disease. The work on these diseases, which was carried out in the course of the general study of virus questions at Weybridge, has now been concluded and no further work specifically in connection with them is contemplated for the present.
