Börje Nilsson himself has had close contact with colleagues in Norway. Tomorrow he is expected to be told exactly what it is about infection in the neighboring country. Until then, he has urged the Defense Force's dog unit to avoid unnecessary dog ​​contact.

- The service dogs should do what they have to do in their service, but otherwise avoid unnecessary dog ​​contact, says Nilsson and continues:

- This applies to all dogs of the defense force, including the breeding program.

The breeding station in Sollefteå should thus also avoid unnecessary contact with other dogs and staff should not bring around If in the country the Swedish Armed Forces has a lot of feed hosts who take care of dogs. These individuals have been informed to avoid all dog activities for the time being. All puppy hits have been set.

Prohibited from participating in activities

It is also prohibited to participate in activities where several dogs meet and to travel to Norway with the dogs.

- We stay low for a few days until we know what this is about, then we can make new decisions when we know more, says Börje Nilsson.

- This way we can reduce the risk of something happening. Probably I will be informed from Norway tomorrow about what this is about. Samples are taken, he says.
