via Don't get started, these are actual dogs. Someone loves these doggies so much that they're willing to kill you.

This dog was part of a large shipment of dogs and cats from Egypt that rescue organizations had distributed to multiple states for adoption. During the investigation, public health officials learned that the rabies vaccination certificate used for entry of the rabid dog into the United States had intentionally been falsified to avoid exclusion of the dog from entry under CDC's current dog importation regulations. This report underscores the ongoing risk posed by U.S. importation of domestic animals that have not been adequately vaccinated against rabies.

Oddly, the "rescue" organization that did this seems not to be named anywhere. Unless they really are "Animal Rescue Group A."

And of course, who feels the need to adopt a foreign dog when so many are waiting for a new home right here in America. That's just sick!
