| Can yorkies catch a humans cold? I'm coming down with a cold or sinus infection or something, can Mia get it from me? She's always in my face, sleeping close to me or just kissing me. Should I try to keep her away, I dont want her to get sick! |

| colds My vet said no. In 33 yrs I have had many colds and I never recall one of my Yorkies getting sick at the same time. |

| Yorkies are very understanding when you are sick, too! Yoda laid in bed with me all day when I was out sick. He'd only bark to be let out or get a little nibble of food, then he'd be right back in bed with me. :P |

| Well it's late at night, can't sleep and I'm reading through these old threads. Anyway, I think there is a thread with this exact same title circulating on the new posts right now. So I thought bumping this up might prove a little interesting. BTW, I love YT's huge community, but it seems like you had a nice, close knit group in the beginning

| Don't worry No they can't catch our colds. Mostly because their body temps are different...much higher than ours. When I was a kid, our vets told us not to worry. So don't worry. Also my dogs never caught any of my colds.
