Dogs by Nancy Kress

Dogs takes place, for the most part, in Tyler, Maryland, a small town not far from Washington D.C., that generally exists apart from the big city intrigues which dominate life in the nation’s capital. That all starts to change when Jess Langstrom, Tyler’s Animal Control officer, is called to the scene of a house where the family dog had suddenly turned vicious, attacking the family’s youngest child. It quickly becomes apparent that something bigger is going on when complaints of dog bites suddenly mushroom from one every other month or so to dozens in a single day. Before the local residents can catch a breath, both the Center for Disease Control and Homeland Security have set up shop in town, and Tyler is placed under a quarantine.
