Dogs And Human Germs

Are Dogs (toy Poodles) Subject To Catch Human Germs, E.g., Minor Flu Germs.

My Husband Has Been Sick For Two Days, And Won't Let Sophie See Him For Fear Of Her Getting Germs.

They Are Both Very Unhappy About This. I Assured My Husband That Sophie Would Not Catch His Germs.

Is That True? Many Dogs Are Around Elderly Sick People In Nursing Homes. Any Thoughts. I Am Very New At This. Thanks. Lou

Hi Lou, tell hubbie to give Sophie a cuddle and not to worry, Sophie won't catch anything from him. Dogs can't catch a cold or flu from people.

Thanks Ruth. We Will All Be Happier Now. Lou
