Yep, the novel gives that as a local theory very early on. Luckily the novel gave us enough anthromorphic/sentience to Cujo that he qualified here since unfortunately the film was unable to have Cujo escape just being a infected feral dog. Honestly both do give a decent job making him rather sympathetic and is one of the reasons I enjoyed both so much.
