The Foundation said that one of the dogs had to be euthanized.
The other 16 are on a course of antibiotics.
The shelter said on September 30th, test results for the dog that was put down came back positive for pathogens including Strep Zoo and Canine Pneumovirus and their symptoms were too severe to save.
While the Animal Foundation investigates what was behind the outbreak, adoptions, fosters and transfers of dogs will be put on hold.
