Abstract
We describe the case of a 31-year-old asplenic man who developed DF-2 bacteremia, septic shock, and pneumonia after recreational immersion in a whirlpool spa. The patient did not have a history of dog bite or contact with canine secretions, although he owned two dogs. DF-2 could not be isolated from the whirlpool spa.
