Rabies
The parasite produces proteins that affect the central nervous system. rabies is caused by a genus of RNA viruses called lysoviruses. It affects mammals, including humans and quite frequently dogs. Once symptoms of rabies appear in any animal, it is almost always fatal. The time it takes for rabies to be fatal just depends on how far the virus has to travel to the brain.
