| Do puppies get sick? Hi All, This may be a dumb question but I need to know. lol. For the past couple of days, I have been fighting it but I feel like Im definitely coming down with a bad cold. I just dont want to get Maxi sick. He is 5 1/2 months old now with all his shots and Im just not sure if he can catch a human cold. Is that possible? Thanks!

I don't think so. But don't breathe all over him either while your not feeling well. I am pretty sure he'll be fine. Feel better soon. | |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | He should be fine. Like Archie said just don't breathe and kiss on him for a few days. I know it's hard.

| It's okay. Colds are not zoonotic. I'd say, kiss away. Whenever I'm sick, Ellie is my snuggle buddy.
