In my research today this is what I found. the canine influenza virus transmit?
The canine influenza virus can pass from dog to dog through virus particles in the air (that is through coughing or sneezing) or by coming into physical contact with other dogs (touching noses). It can also be picked up if a dog touches or plays with objects that were touched by infected dogs (food bowls, toys). Humans can even transfer the virus between dogs on clothes and shoes. For example, they may spread the virus if they touch an infected dog, or even touch a toy or a doorknob that the dog has made contact with, and then touch another dog before washing their hands. | It sounds highly contagious and your information reinforces my thoughts that Piper should get vaccinated (haven't lined-up veterinarian since moving). But you're not planning to do so unless your vet contacts you? Ummm, what to do? What to do? |
