It isn’t that the dogs have the virus inside them and are carriers - people that have the virus get it ON the dog (breathing on them, talking to them “Oh aren’t you adorable...” or petting them, and then you are touching and hugging or have the dog in your lap or bed later on.
I just warned my daughter about that (probably too late). They have a lovable pit bull puppy that everyone has to be friends with. And then of course he is all over my daughter later on.
The person specifically said
““Delivery by dog: A new way to get wine,groceries and COVID-19 in the age of social distancing”
Dogs and cats may shed the virus if infected.”
You have no idea what vets and shelters are going through, right now.
People are bringing their perfectly healthy, terrified and confused dogs to be put down or they’re dumping them at shelters.
It is gutting.
All because of stupid rumors like this.
Pet the dog.
Wash your hands.
