I've never had experience with this and I'm concerned as I have my other Yorkies and I do not want them to contact it.

I did call my vet's office today and the tech there said that it's common and that as long as they their bathroom area is separate and that the fecal is picked up immediately that it will not pass to the other dogs. The thing is I also googled it and it seems a little more contagious then what my vet's office has stated.

I'd like to hear from anyone with experience with this. Thanks so much in advance.
