Can dogs catch colds from us???.... This weekend I was pretty miserable....I had a sore throat, fever and my legs were shakey and I had the shivers...poor Maximus evenm missed puppy kindergarten yesterday...BUT he slept all day with me...he obly got up to eat and drink and then came back to bed....even while my bf was walkign around he just slept with me,and was kind of mushy...also he didn't wake up till 6:30 this morning when I had to get up....do you think he could catch some of my cold??...or is that completely impossible? |
You are safe. It is completely impossible.:) |
Im wondering the same thing because I have bronchitis. Angel just got spayed on friday so Im worried her immune system may be low. I on't want her getting sick (or any of the others for that matter). If anyone can answer this. Please do. Im very curious! |
I wondered this before, I even asked my vet, and he said Definately NO,, so feel better about that,and GET BETTER soon. :) |
That's great to hear! I was afraid she would catch what I have. Thank goodness she can't! |
Hey Heather....did you get me sick....lol, I have the WORST sore throat and fever and I am at work just dying...lol |
no worries its impossible! - its probably just kind of like sympathy pain like our older dog dink always knows when im sad or depressed or happy he acts to fit my mood lol they just know when you need them i guess!! |
Different strain of virus. Much like how we don't get colds/coughing when they experience kennel cough,...they can't give it to us. |
I wonder about that too, because my vet told me to kissing on Sabrina when I had a sore throat that I was giving her tonsillitis! I truly couldn't tell if he was kidding or not and when I said "You're kidding, right?" He just laughed at me and started with the shots, meds etc. I do know that a lot of illnesses that people have and dogs have ARE contagious, that's why they get the shots. I just don't know about colds etc. |
So weird! I was sick all weekend too and I was going to post something about this! Sam has been sleeping on the couch with me for the past 2 days and I thought he caught what I have. Then I was wondering if he knew I was sick and just wanted to keep me warm and cuddle :) . They are sooo smart b/c I really think he knows that something's wrong with me! I love my little guy. |
This is interesting. I have wondered about this myself. |
