When in doubt, give your vet a call.
Wow, that's what I was hoping to hear from you guys. Thank you, that gives me a lot of hope. Benny is 6 yrs old and his vaccines are NOT up to date. I did give my vet a call and was freakin out and asked them if I could give him anti-biotics right now as for safe measure and to prevent it from getting it but the vet said that's not a good idea.

They said it's best to just wait to see if my does get 1st, then they can administer the proper anti-biotics. I'm praying in that 1.5 hrs they were in the same room was not enough for the virus to spread, god I'm praying.
