For 16 samples, titers were from\n1:16 to 1:64, and titers in these dogs were considered\nlikely to be a result of cross-reactivity with antibodies\ndirected against other organisms. For the\nremaining 2 samples, the titers were \u2265 1:128. One of\nthese samples was from a blood donor dog that had\nnever had any clinical signs of leishmaniasis. Followup\nsamples from both dogs also had <jats:italic>Leishmania<\/jats:italic> IFA\ntiters \u2265 1:128.
